The Graphos Museum presents the history of writing and, in particular, printing in a vivid way. It presents 50,000 years of the development of language and writing and centuries in which books were only written by hand on parchment up to Gutenberg. Subsequent developments are also discussed: from manual typesetting to mechanization with the invention of the typesetting machine in 1886 to the end of the lead age and the beginning of electronics.
Visitors can lend a hand themselves in workshops. They make the living book printing museum, where professional prints are still produced, an entertaining and impressive meeting and educational place.
