Schlitte and Woodworking Museum

" This craft museum located in Muhlbach-sur-Munster is a real jewel! Come and find out more about the schlitte, the large sledge used at the time to transport wood through the Vosges forests! "

The Munster valley honors the old schlitteers and their hard work transporting logs and firewood. Schlittage, a practice still common in the Vosges in the last century but now extinct, is being revived thanks to the work of volunteers at the Musée de la Schlitte. Created in 1973 and renovated in 1997, the museum naturally also exhibits everything to do with wood species, lumbering and woodworking, a heritage of craftsmanship handed down through the generations. The museum is closed during the winter, but can be opened on request for groups.
