The Clothmakers' Museum shows the development of the clothmaking trade, the transition to the clothmakers' cooperative and the change to the textile industry. Numerous machines and devices illustrate the individual processes from washing the raw wool to dyeing the finished cloth. Museum visitors are invited to try out individual steps of the fascinating craft technique for themselves.

In the Fire Brigade Museum, which was redesigned in 2016, the history of the oldest fire department in Burgenland (founded in 1871) is presented by means of modern presentation technology (touch-screen monitors and wall sails) and numerous objects (suction and pressure fire engines, steam fire engines, motor fire engines, firefighting clothing ...).
