LVR-Industriemuseum Gesenkschmiede Hendrichs

In the location's words:

You can experience real industrial history in Solingen: In the old Hendrichs scissors forge from 1886. Everything here is just as it was back then - red brick buildings, mighty machines and even the old changing room. And the best thing? The machines are still running! You can watch how scissor blanks are forged - real manual work with plenty of power.

But the museum can do even more: there are guided tours, exciting events such as "Jazz in the Forge" or the MesserGabelScherenMarkt, and even a sharpening service for your blunt knives and scissors. Fancy a break? The historic company villa has a café with a conservatory and garden view - perfect for relaxing.

So if you fancy experiencing a piece of Solingen history live, then head to Gesenkschmiede Hendrichs! 🔧✨
