In the bakery, visitors watch how the loaves of bread are made from sourdough. It is explained to them and how to bake in the stone ovens. This bread can then be bought.


Visitors then tour the flour mill, sawmill and old blacksmith shop. While grain is being ground in the mill, a horizontal gate operated by water power cuts wood in the sawmill.
