Buildings
There are more than fifty buildings from the 16th century to the beginning of the 20th on the museum’s 15 hectares. All of them have been moved from the site of their original construction. They include large farms as well as Quatmann’s and Wehlburg’s farms, medium-sized farms like those of Hakke of Hoffmann, as well as the residential buildings and workhouses of hirelings and tradesmen. The special attractions include three windmills, a manor, church and a school on the museum’s property. The ensemble of buildings at the open-air museum offers insight into the daily lives and cultural history of the entire northwestern region.
