Museum of Early Industrialization

4 loulou-azar projects - 4 years ago

Interesting textile machines to watch and history of this industry in wuppertal in addition to the status of workers. An English booklet was offered to us to try to follow the museum stops since all info and videos are in German only. Maybe at a later stage there will be translation for each text by its own and it would become more interesting.

(Translated by Google) Museum that highlights working conditions in the textile industry in the 19th century, including the exploitation of children that Friedrich Engels had denounced.

(Translated by Google) I had a tour and still hardly learned anything. Many of the machines would be just explained and then it went on. In other words, the background was missing. It is positive that at least one of the machines can still be switched on.

Ich hatte eine Führung und habe trotzdem kaum etwas gelernt. Viele der Maschinen würde gerade so erklärt und dann ging es schon weiter. Mit anderen Worten mir hat der Hintergrund gefehlt. Positiv ist das zumindest eine der Maschinen noch angeschaltet werden kann.
