A year after its opening the flour art museum in the Mecklenburg town of Wittenburg can look back on a successful start.

Millers and others around the globe have read about the museum and sent new flour sacks with their own personal story.

The collection has grown to 1,925 sacks from 115 countries.

New countries represented are Mozambique, Austria, the United Kingdom, Korea, Cap Verde and Romania.

Volkmar Wywiol, founder of the flour art museum and owner of Mühlenchemie, hopes to set up a centre of excellence for wheat, to present cereal crops as food and demonstrate their significance for human nutrition in the museum called “Corn Worlds”.

“If our customers and partners are in Germany – taking part in training courses at our Technology Centre in Ahrensburg, for example – our flour art museum is a very popular and indispensable item of the programme”, Volkmar Wywiol explains.

“Over 100 customers worldwide have now visited the exhibition.”
