The class 3b got to know the carpenter's handicraft in Röthenbach. The carpenter's workshop which was founded in 1898 by Paul Bellmann is run in the fourth generation today by Steffen Bellmann.

In the Bellmann carpenter's workshop, furniture, stairs and balcony balustrades
are manufactured. In addition, the Bellmann family installs windows.
The senior master Günter Bellmann made the wooden parts for the
Röthenbach Christmas Pyramid (german page).
In former times, several journeymen and apprentices were working in the workshop.
Today, Steffen Bellmann ist working with his son as an apprentice.
