From sheep to wool (Psairer Herbst)
Guided tour with sheep shearing at the MuseumPasseier, wool processing at Spinnradl, and felting workshop
At the MuseumPasseier, professional sheep shearer Albert will demonstrate how sheep are sheared, while Annelies shares fascinating facts and stories about sheep and their role in local culture.
The tour continues at Spinnradl, a local business where regional sheep’s wool has been processed into unique knitted jackets since 1948. Owner Franz will guide you through the workshops, giving you an up-close look at the entire process – from washing the wool, carding, spinning, and knitting, all the way to sewing the finished garments. To round off the experience, you’ll get hands-on and creative during a felting workshop – an authentic craft adventure for all ages!
