UNDER PRESSURE - PRESENTATION OF BLACK ART USING EPOCH-MAKING PRINTING PRESSES
The Bartlhaus is the only writing museum in Austria. It shows exhibitions of contemporary calligraphy and bookplates. In the printing workshop, the objects on display show the development of letterpress printing, from manual typesetting with movable type to typesetting machines and from printing with manual printing presses to printing machines.
Almost all of the machines are fully functional and are put into operation by our printers and typesetters as part of printing demonstrations during the Long Night of Industrial Culture.
Pettenbach's local history museum is also housed in the Bartlhaus. Calligraphy courses are held regularly in the scriptorium.
MUSIC - BUSLINIE 102
Young, motivated musicians who are passionate about music came together in spring 2013 to form a music group. We prefer to play modern folk music such as pieces by the great composer Herbert Pixner and traditional Austrian folk music.
