In the grounds of the large Scherer millstone quarry, the STEINBRECHERHAUS, built around 1802, has been preserved almost in its original state. In 2006, the "Steinbrecherhaus Association" acquired the house and carefully restored it. The stone crusher house was opened in 2007 as a millstone museum and a venue for cultural events.
In our museum, you will learn a lot about how people started grinding grain and perfected this process over the centuries with ever-improving mills. Information on the school class programme can be found at: sites.google.com/view/muehlsteinmuseum2/startpage/rätselrallye
