    German Wire Museum
    "How is wire manufactured? Under what conditions did the wire-pullers work? Which products is wire processed? What will the future uses of the material look like? - These and many other questions will be answered in the German Wire Museum on Fritz-Thomée-Strasse. Under the motto "From chain mail to superconductor" shows how versatile the material is. Guided tours can be used to operate historical machines on which wire was drawn and rolled. Experimental stations encourage visitors to try out a lot and immerse themselves in the world of wire. "
