Technisches Schaudenkmal "Gießerei Heinrichshütte"

Leutenberger Straße 44, 07343 Wurzbach

Framed by dense forests in the beautiful Sormitz valley, the Heinrichshütte foundry is located in Wurzbach. Once upon a time, the foundrymen were bustling with activity, sparks flew when the cupola furnace was tapped and clouds of smoke could be seen rising above the workshops. In the vicinity of Wurzbach there were five hammer mills, the later smelting works. The Heinrichshütte foundry is the only one of the original ten that has been able to remain in operation to this day. Since 1982 it has been a child-friendly technical museum and show monument, where visitors can not only marvel but also touch. Visitors can enjoy unique insights into the original production history of the Heinrichshütte during a show casting or when starting the most powerful steam engine in Europe (15,000 hp) and experience the everyday life of a foundryman in the original preserved casting hall from 1729. During the holidays, exciting as well as creative children‘s events are offered.
