Between Bioland and the local corner shop
Vivacious and experience-orientated - the Smedtshof in Wennerstorf is no ordinary farm. A museum farm, organic agriculture with Bioland certification and working with people with disabilities - that's what our outpost stands for.
Living History
Feeling and knowing what life was like between 1804 and 1969: we bring the everyday reality of the rural population of the past back to life and make it tangible.
Animals and Gardens
Life in the countryside as it used to be - with gardens, animals and traditions. In the open-air museum at Kiekeberg, you can experience how people used to live and farm in the marshes and heaths.
