Weisbachsches Haus, Heritage monument in Plauen, Germany.

The Weisbachsches Haus stands as a four-story brick building with Franconian Baroque elements, featuring a central risalit and symmetrical wings.

Built in 1776 as a cotton printing factory by Johann August Neumeister, the structure expanded in 1779 with an eastern wing to accommodate increased manufacturing needs.

The building transformed from a textile factory into the Fabrik der Fäden museum, displaying the evolution of Saxony's manufacturing heritage through exhibits and presentations.

Located at Bleichstraße 1-7, the museum opens daily and presents collections across multiple floors, showcasing industrial machinery and textile production methods.

The renovation project, completed in 2023, required 14.5 million euros to convert this former cotton printing factory into a center dedicated to lace and embroidery.
