Twine box

The warehouse , similar to an oat bin , should protect the yarn from theft and fire. The bleached or bleached yarn, which was the main source of income for yarn bleachers , was stored . The buildings were built as timber or half-timbered houses .

A formerly known twine box stood in the Barmer Anlagen , he was formerly the last sustaining twine box and was in the late 1860s due to the expansion of railway facilities in Rosenau ( Barmen - Rittershausen to Barmer plants, near the) Lönsstraße translocated . It rotted and was demolished in the post-war period, then it was demolished. Another box of twine stood in the Wuppertal district of Kothen , it was removed around 1920. Another box of twine from the Öhde was then moved to the Kommern open-air museum in the Eifel in 1958 with the mediation of the historian Klaus Goebel .
