For groups with adults

Here you will find what the museum has to offer for adults, senior citizens and groups. Our goal is for you to get to know the museum grounds with 79 historic buildings from the Rhineland. You will learn what everyday life in the Rhineland was like over the past 500 years. You will get to know the five building blocks of the museum, meet people and animals and get an impression of living and working, but also of the living conditions in the region.
