Since 1995, Klingenthal has had its own exhibition space. The former school has become the "Maison de la Manufacture d'Armes Blanches" (House of the White Weapons Manufactory), which recounts the history of the village and presents the techniques used to manufacture edged weapons and forgeries. This place is also a tribute to all those workers who forged not only the weapons but also the prestige of the village.
Discover the Valley of the Blades.

An exhibition space that retraces the history of the first French knife factory created in 1730 by Louis XV. Thanks to the reconstitution of workshops, the visitor discovers the stages of production, the old trades and the collections of blades and tools (scythes, sickles, ...)
