Everything under one hat: Straw Gravel History: The permanent exhibition focusing on "Changes in the landscape" and the "Hat industry" is presented in the Goldbachschür. We show how the landscape is constantly changing as a result of gravel extraction, the effects on agriculture and the recultivation of the gravel pits with new areas for nature conservation, viticulture and agriculture. The Ritz & Söhne hat factory produced men's and women's hats until 1959. Production was discontinued for economic reasons. You will learn a lot about hat production and we will show you how straw hats were made back then. The village chronicle, visual and audio documents round off the exhibition. Special exhibitions on local themes are held regularly.
