There's the opportunity to witness the charcoal production (lighting the charcoal kiln). But you should check in advance to see when this takes place. It's definitely worth it and very interesting!

The temporary terminus of the Schättere line is a great success. The association members are doing a tremendous job. A member of the association explained to me during a conversation that the railway will be extended to the former station in Dischingen. The station in Dischingen is also owned by the museum association.
