Reepschläger House
After several hundred years as a home for hard-working craftsmen, the Reepschlägerhaus was only just saved from demolition in the 1970s. It was lovingly and carefully renovated and now serves as an exhibition and event venue. It also houses a small, cozy café.
The house, affectionately known as the "Reepi", was used for more than 200 years as living quarters for the Reepschläger, who produced yarns, ropes and cordage. With the end of this craft, the living space for the craftsmen was no longer needed. Thanks to the dedicated efforts of a citizens' initiative, the house was saved from demolition. It has been lovingly restored and opened to the public. Artists can present their works to visitors in changing exhibitions. Readings and concerts also take place here. There is also a tea room in the cozy rooms where visitors can enjoy homemade cakes and tarts, delicious waffles and a varied breakfast. The picturesque garden, which has been lovingly landscaped, is also a particular eye-catcher. Hidden seating areas in small alcoves invite you to take a short break and enjoy the beauty of the garden and the small pond.
