Sketchers an der Muerbelsmillen

The first sketchcrawl of 2023 with Urban Sketchers Luxembourg took place in Pfaffenthal, in the Muerbelsmillen. This is an old watermill which can traced back to the 11th century. It has been set up as a mustard museum, as it was a mustard factory for some time.

The water wheel was in full swing. Here is a sketch by Malou, combining the Muerbelsmillen façade with the wheel which is inside the building:

One room exhibited mustard containers from all over the world and some machinery. Ekaterina made the following sketches in this room:

The machinery from different rooms of the museum fascinated several sketchers, as can be seen from the following sketches.

The sketchcrawl ended with a very informative meeting with Mr Jean Stammet. Some of his pictures from the event can be seen on the Pfaffenthal info page:
