DampfLandLeute Museum Eslohe
Diverse nature experiences
The DampfLandLeute Museum Eslohe offers an impressive presentation of the use of water and fire energy in the past on over 2,000 square meters. A central aspect is iron processing in the Sauerland, supplemented by a folklore and cultural history section. Historical power machines and the "Technization of Agriculture" section are also on display. At the original site of a tool, link chain and machine factory in the Salwey Valley, the exhibition conveys the working methods of the former small iron industry. The focus is on former industrial enterprises such as iron hammers and chainsmiths. The tour leads through an agricultural exhibition, which focuses on the transition from manual labor to machines, and shows a collection of historical power machines, including two of the oldest functioning steam engines in Germany. The museum illustrates the interplay between industry and the rural environment and is an important part of the Hochsauerland museum landscape.
