The museum is scenically located at the Eixendorf reservoir in the Schwarzachtal. As a "special museum of supra-regional importance" it shows the "crafts in the Upper Palatinate" and tries to convey as vivid a picture as possible of the life of the craftsmen around 1900, the transition to mechanization and industrialization. The institution is sponsored by the city of Rötz, supported by a museum association, the Friends of the Oberpfälzer Handwerksmuseum Hillstett e. V. and a working group consisting of members of the Rötz city council, the circle of friends, the cultural department at the Cham district office and other people who care deeply about the museum.

Eixendorfer Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

In the former Schwarzachtal lies the beautiful Eixendorfer reservoir. You can of course just cycle around it. Or you take it easy, come in one of the cozy inns, chill a bit on the shore and treat yourself to a little refreshment. Incidentally, the lake has existed since 1975 - entire villages had to be evacuated and outsourced for its creation.

Lake Eixendorf

Highlight • Lake

It is used for flood control, low water (water), hydro and recovery and was put into operation on 19 November 1975. Normally, the dam is only half full; the remaining storage space (13.2 million m³) is intended for flood protection. The reservoir is operated by the Water Management Office Weiden, the power plant Eixendorf by the Bavarian state power plants.
The dam is a rockfill dam with an asphalt concrete interior gasket. A road leads over the dam.
In the reservoir drowned Eixendorf, Höllmühle, Obermühle, Seebarnhammer and a section of the former railway line Bodenwöhr-Rötz.
