In two buildings between the Kinzig and a canal on the so-called Schleifegrün, the subject of wood is presented in many of its facets. A full-size Kinzig raft points to the museum outside the buildings.
Timber production by the local forestry industry, which is characterised by the plentiful management of only one percent of the forest area in Germany, is the starting point for the other timber-related topics:
- For a long time, rafting was a term here that included timber transport and therefore also timber trading. The so-called raft lords, who were organised into regular trading companies - the Schifferschaften - ran this trade, which was extremely important for the Kinzig valley, together with the raftsmen who worked for them.
- Wood was also processed here, which is demonstrated using the example of sawing technology from the last two centuries. The conversion of water power to the mechanics of the saws is clearly visible.
- However, each saw also had a filing room, which - also equipped with transmission-driven machinery - provided space for maintenance work such as sharpening the saw blades and repair work and was a place for tinkering and breaks.
- A chemical use of wood can be recognised in the red tannery and, of course, it is also presented as a building material for the production of half-timbered houses, furniture, tools and other aids.
- Last but not least, the properties of wood as a source of energy are emphasised in this idyllically situated museum area
