Facts and practical information

The Manuelskotten, also called Kaltenbacher Kotten, is the only still functioning, water-driven Schleifkotten on Wuppertal city territory.

The restored plant has belonged to the city of Wuppertal since 1993 and serves as an industrial museum to demonstrate the old grinding craft. The plant is registered as a historical monument in the city's list of monuments. At the same time, machine knives for the food industry are still being reground in the plant today for a Remscheid tool company, so that the craft on display is by no means only of museum character.
