    Beautiful old house

      The building, the "Old Forge", now serves as a village community center and event location.

      But as the name suggests, the 19th century building was once used to practice a very old craft that was an essential part of any village at the time.

      As the craft lost more and more importance in the 20th century, the craft was abandoned and the old building became vacant.

      In the 1980s, the property was purchased by the town of Hillesheim and extensively renovated in 1981. Since then, it has served as the center of the village for the residents of Bolsdorf.
