Small museum on the history of the old wood saw in Valens. The museum is freely accessible.
In 1990 the saw was shut down by the owner Ferdinand Reiter Junior and in 2004/2005 it was restored by Valens Tourismus, under the leadership of Kurt Wyrsch, and reopened as a museum to the public. The old sawmill in Valens is freely accessible all year round and is an exciting witness to the timber industry of the last century.
