Handmade Paper

The Paper Museum is part of Museum Silkeborg and is a living museum where handmade paper is still produced and where you can experience the magical moment when the milky water mass suddenly becomes a sheet of paper. You can also explore an exhibition about Danish papermaking through the ages and about Silkeborg Paper Mill, as well as experience changing exhibitions related to paper production.

Visit the Paper Tower

You can also visit the tower at the Paper Museum, where you can see Silkeborg from 70 metres above ground. The Paper Tower is located in the centre of the new Papirfabrikken district, where Silkeborg Paper Factory operated until 2000.

Get up the tower by booking a guide in advance.
