Hiking

A must visit. Went on a Sunday morning and the work was going on. I heard, that it is a bit quiter in the afternoon but not sure. Managed without a guide.

Hiking

Leather production here is still carried out by hand, just as it was in the Middle Ages. Since the late 11th century, men in the tannery have been standing up to their knees in lime, pigeon droppings, and other sinking substances. Cow, camel, and sheepskins are brought here to obtain leather.
