In 1865 the engineering works "Carlswerk" was founded as a factory building to produce special machines. This complex ranks among the most important historical industrial plants and memorials of industrial architecture (19th century) that is in good condition. The machinery on the ground floor is in original condition. A crane from 1890, mechanical metal-cutting machine, workbenches and lockers give an insight into the working conditions in the factory.

Sometimes there are demonstrations of old- forging technologies in the smithy (Please call the museum for this.)
