Cutlery used to be made here. Today the former factory serves as a museum and is a listed building. Guided tours of the factory show how cutlery was made in the old days and what hard work it was for people.

Cycling

The Hesse cutlery factory impresses with its complete, archaic-looking original equipment. A highlight is the original turbine and generator on the ground floor, powered by the waters of the Lenne River. The heart of the factory is the production area, with its historic friction spindle and eccentric presses, as well as the grinding and polishing stations.

Opening Hours:
Saturdays and, in summer, Mondays, 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. Demonstrations on Saturdays at 3:15 p.m. and 4:15 p.m.

Admission:
Adults €3.50, children ages 7 and up €1, and children ages 14 and up €2.
