papermill Homburg

The Homburg Paper Mill Museum near Triefenstein am Main dates back to the 18th century. The original paper-making machines in the museum, which were driven by the mill wheel, have been preserved in the original. This also applies to the former living quarters of the paper miller and his family. Johannes Follmer, son of the last operator of Papiermüll, now runs his own paper factory where he produces hand-made paper. He was instrumental in the restoration of historical books in the Anna Amalien library in Weimar. Next to the paper mill is the paper barn, a large event room that is mainly used for wedding celebrations, but also seminars and company events.
