About

A "workshop for the world" - that was the city of Solingen with its cutlery production at the end of the 19th century. Even today, in the Hendrichs drop forge of the LVR Industrial Museum in Solingen, you can experience how the red-hot slit pieces are forged into scissor blanks under a loud roar, how it bangs and hisses. You will learn exciting facts about the history of the famous Solingen cutlery industry.
