 The Hoisn House on the outskirts of Molln was once one of the largest Mouth Harp forges in Molln. Lovingly restored by the "Friends of the Hoisn House" association, the building now offers insights into "the life of the mouth harp forges of the past".

Visitors are invited to explore the herb garden and relax and linger in the old orchard with its paths and places.

**The Hoisn House should be a "LIVING MONUMENT" and a place,**
where old values are carried into the future,
where people come together and chat,
where celebrations are held and events take place,
where it becomes cozy and
where they are invited to be part of it.

 The Hoisn Haus in Molln is an old, originally preserved Jew's harp production facility and invites you as a visitor to enjoy a pleasant gathering. The rooms tell the story of Jew's harp production, which has been conducted here since the 17th century. Let yourself be transported to another world.

**Public Transport:**
The Steyr Valley is served by bus lines 452 (Rohr-Bad Hall-Steinbach a. d. Steyr) and 433 (Steyr-Molln-Kirchdorf).
