During a printing demonstration, you will find out all about printing with lead type, how the letters are made and how to use them to make up sentences. You will see the typeset text being put on the press and printed off. Would you like to try typesetting and printing yourself? Then there is the workshop on ‘Casting and setting type and printing’.
Fancy an unusual adventure? Visit the world’s best preserved printing press and soak up the intimate atmosphere there. Young and old, type freaks and bookworms alike will all enjoy the guided tours, exhibitions and workshops here.
Guided tours, creative workshops, printing demonstrations and day programmes: come to the museum with your group and make the visit more lively or varied with our group options.
