Mühlerama Museum

Mühlerama is home to the Tiefenbrunnen industrial mill, which is over 100 years old and the oldest operating mill in Zurich - that’s right! Flour is still produced here every day and can be bought in the museum shop.

But why buy flour when you can grind your own? With the entry tickets, you get a cup of wheat to grind with various grinders throughout history available in the museum - from old fashioned stone on stone  [the stone in the museum is 3000 years old!) to a modern hand spun grinder. When you’re done grinding, head upstairs and turn your handmade flour into freshly baked bread!

The museum also houses a whole host of interactive and fun exhibits that tells the story of this mill, the machinery and mechanisms behind it, and interesting stories about food production, food waste, nutrition and more. There’s also a multi-level slide that was used for flour sacks and now is loved by the children! (and adults)
