Ortsmuseum, Amriswil
The local museum in Amriswil shows changing exhibitions on the history of the village. Among other things, there are exhibits on industrial history with a focus on the textile and shoe industries. Special attractions include the circular knitting machine, which was developed and built in Amriswil between 1920 and 1940, and the first and still functioning Saurer weaving machine, which was purchased by the founder of the Cornella company AG. The numerous objects in the "Stories write history" exhibition are particularly exciting. The exhibitions on the blacksmith's trade, on the creative artist and author Dino Larese and "Old Amriswil in photography" with cameras over 100 years old round off the interesting displays on the history of Amriswil with almost 3000 objects.
