Handwerksmuseum Hillstett, Craftsmanship museum in Rötz, Germany.

The museum complex features various buildings including a reconstructed Seebarn hammer, traditional workshops, and a steam locomotive from 1934.

The museum's buildings were relocated from different locations throughout the 1970s to preserve them from destruction during the Eixendorfer Dam construction.

The museum presents 18 reconstructed workshops that demonstrate the evolution of regional craftsmanship and industrial techniques from around 1900.

Visitors can explore multiple exhibition spaces, including a water-powered cutting mill, a machine house, and traditional log cabins spread across the grounds.

A steam locomotive marks the entrance, commemorating the former railway connection between Rötz and Neunburg vorm Wald.
