Flax-processing Museum in Burgstall

It was the crushing hut where the fibers for the linen thread were extracted from flax, which was then processed into cloth and clothing. In the meantime, almost all the crushing huts have disappeared, they have been demolished or rebuilt. However, one has survived to this day. It has been placed under a preservation order and restored. Copyright Tourist Information Creglingen/Klaus Hein
