The Freudenberg Museum of Technology offers a fascinating insight into the industrial past of the Siegerland region. The working world of 100 years ago comes to life in an authentic setting. Visitors experience the interplay of mechanics and craftsmanship at first hand: the sound of the transmission belts, the crack of the forge hammer and the smell of hot oil create an impressive atmosphere. Germany's largest collection of 25 historical machine tools, driven by an impressive steam engine, is a central element of the exhibition. Interactive experiences, such as forging activities at museum festivals, invite visitors to join in. A special highlight is the 100 hp steam engine from 1904, which is housed in a large half-timbered hall. This machine, once part of the Otto Nöll table glue factory, drives numerous historical machines via transmissions. The exhibition is complemented by stationary engines, power generators and a weaving room with a 250-year-old loom that is still in operation.
