    At its headquarters in Stein, the long-established Faber-Castell company offers exciting opportunities for visitors: Faber-Castell Castle, the production of wood-cased pencils, the “Alte Mine” museum, and a special tour on the theme of “The Castle as a Labour Camp.”

    Every day, more than 500,000 wood-encased pencils are manufactured at Faber-Castell in Stein. How is a pencil made?

You will have the opportunity to follow the individual production steps and accompany the pencil or coloured pencil on its journey through the raw pencil line, the stamping department, the dipping department, and the sharpening department.
