You can find the opening hours here.

New attraction in the mill: the historical steam engine!

Join us on a journey back to 1913!

Erwin has continued his philosophy of old technology and restored a steam engine from 1913 to full working order. The steam boiler that supplies the energy for this is also already 40 years old and has to be preheated for about three hours until the necessary energy to run the steam engine is available. Therefore, the steam engine can be shown working spontaneously only via compressed air. The demonstration is particularly suitable for groups. You can also experience the steam engine live in action as part of the Museum of Technology.

Steam engine demonstration
Costs € 139.00 all-inclusive; but only in conjunction with a mill tour!

We look forward to your inquiry under Tel .: 06597/92820 or via our contact form !
