Roundhouse festival of a special kind

A wedding celebration surrounded by steam engines? – The Thau couple from the Taunus region came to this spontaneous decision after a visit to the museum last year. They also signed a membership application for the Friends’ Association. Their celebration on 31 August 2024 was also a special experience for the 50 invited guests. A bouncy castle was set up for the children and the guests were offered guided tours of the core site. For Anika and Daniel Thau, it was an all-round successful celebration with very satisfied guests. Not least thanks to the “excellent all-round service” provided by the volunteers, said Daniel Thau after the party.
