Paper Museum
"At the heartof the Maison Cavens, the Paper Museum offers an instructive presentation on the various successive techniques of papermaking used in the world from the beginning of the century to the present day. As an introduction, it dwells on the succession of different writing materials, which were the precursors of paper, and is witness to the historical presence of a large paper industry in the Warche valley.
“The key components are two models: a real continuous paper machine from the late 19th century and a working paper mill from the 18th century. Moreover, heavy paper-making equipment is displayed at the rear of the building. A hand-made paper workshop is open to groups of visitors on request.
“Guided tours are available on request for groups of up to 25 people.” 18 Oct 2012 15:00:11
