A former workshop
The 1908 building recalls a local smithy. If you are interested in the blacksmith’s craft, first check whether there is still a collection or guided tour to visit.
Conversion into a house
A planning permit notice and a property listing describe the conversion of the workshop into a house. These reports are reason to check the museum’s status, but do not on their own confirm that every public function has ended for good.
Do not rely on old guide details
A museum guide still mentions visits on the first Sunday and by appointment. Without confirmation from the manager, you cannot count on these times. First ask whether a museum visit is still possible.
Before you go
No current public opening confirmed. A museum guide and property information give conflicting pictures of the site. Confirm directly whether a museum visit is possible and what appointment it requires.
