Die Bachschmiede

At that time Georg Markhner built below the rock where the church of Wals-Siezenheim is situated, the Bachschmied-house at the River Mühlbach.

The museum's centerpiece is the beautifully restored forge of the former Bachschmied family Reischl, which is now a show-forge.

Space on the first floor provide insight into the lifestyle of the 19th century and remember specifically to the Bachschmiede son Jakob Lechner, a former professor at the Vienna Military Veterinary Institute.

In an art gallery (foyer of the event location) are regular exhibitions of different artists presented (including Robert Roubin, Ute Födermayr, Käthe Perner).

The variable design Sepp Forcher Hall is the place of theater performances, lectures, cabaret performances (including Martina Schwarzmann, Vince Ebert, Kernölamazonen, Monika Gruber), the International Walser film festivals and concert events.
