For over 40 years, the Basel Paper Mill has been located in the idyllic mill district of St. Alban; in a house where paper was produced for over 500 years. The permanent exhibition focuses on hands-on experience and exploration. Highlights include topics such as letterpress printing in Basel, typographic design, and copperplate engraving or lithography techniques. The rag cellar also conveys an authentic atmosphere, embedded in an exhibition on the history of papermaking and a functioning replica of the first paper machine from 1799.
