Brushmakers' Museum

The Brushmakers' Museum is a former factory building displaying tools, machinery, and production equipment from brush manufacturing spanning several centuries. The collection documents the work processes and technical evolution of this craft tradition.

The building was originally a brush factory founded in the early 20th century following significant social changes in manufacturing. Its establishment reflected shifts in how labor and production were organized during that period.

The town served as a major brush production center in the early 20th century, with multiple factories shaping the community's economy and identity. Visitors can observe how this industry influenced local life and trade networks.

The museum sits in Ramberg's center and is easy to locate and approach on foot. Guided tours help visitors understand how the machinery worked and what daily production looked like.

A life-sized figure dressed in historical merchant clothing represents the traders who distributed Ramberg brushes across Europe. This display shows how the town's products reached distant markets and customers.
