Families

The Open Air Museum has a lot to offer families. There are various activities on offer, like guided tours, projects, discovery quiz-sheets, or even a geo-cache through the museum - and children can celebrate their birthdays here. Many events are especially interesting for families, like for example the big laundry day in July, or after the harvest in September. Details about these can be found in the annual program.
From April to October players of enacted history can regularly be found out and about in the museum grounds, where they illustrate how people used to live. Visitors can make contact with them and exchange stories.
The grounds of the museum are free of steps, so that parents can get around with a pram or buggy, although they do include gradients of up to 17% and the paths are frequently made of cobblestones. There are benches and picnic areas to rest and take a break.
There are a total of three baby changing tables in the disabled toilets on the museum’s grounds: at the entrance/reception, in the restaurant "Gastwirtschaft zur Post" and in the area of the exhibitions.
It is possible to warm up babies’ bottles in the restaurant "Gastwirtschaft zur Post" as well as the entrance/reception.
In the area of the entrance/reception kids’ carts (Bollerwagen) can be hired for a daily fee of € 3.
In the restaurant "Gastwirtschaft zur Post" children’s portions are on offer. What’s more, children’s high-chairs are available.
