Programs for preschools and primary schools

Through interactive tours and hands-on activities, over 200 years of Saxon industrial history can be integrated into early childhood education in kindergartens and lessons in primary schools. In our project programs, children learn interesting facts about the textile industry, discover exciting aspects of life and work 150 years ago, or explore timekeeping and power transmission. By participating and experimenting, the youngest visitors are naturally introduced to historical and technical developments.
