Attraction Weberei Schatz

Imst

If you want to bring home something rare and special from your holidays in Tyrol, visit the Schatz weaving mill in Karrösten, in the Imst Outdoor Region.

Description

Delicate lace on high-quality place mats, fine decorations on cushions and tablecloths – the elegant craftsmanship of weaving and lace-making has been appreciated for hundreds of years.

This business has a long tradition at the Weberei Schatz weaving mill and is illustrated for interested visitors. The Schatz family still produces elaborate works of art today using fascinating techniques that probably originated in the 16th century and lets you watch them at work.

A particularly treasured gem is the bobbin lace. The numerous threads are knotted, interlaced and crossed over a movable roller as a base. This creates a filigree pattern based on hundreds of loops and knots.

If you want to take a special souvenir with you, there is a wide selection available in the small shop of the family business.
