Exhibitions

Here for you - since 1971

Since the LWL-Open-Air Museum was opened on the 7th July 1971, it has developed steadily. Little by little, the houses have been built and the cultivated landscape has been developed.
On our huge museum grounds surrounded by nature you can spend a great day together with your family and friends.
Come and visit our special exhibition, go for a walk through the museum and admire Germany´s oldest horse breed.
