Rhenish State Museum for Folklore

The LVR open-air museum in Kommern bears the addition "Rhenish State Museum for Folklore" in its name - because state museums focus primarily on the historical development of their region.

To do this, they collect art and cultural assets from their area and put them on display in scientifically prepared exhibitions. For this reason, the collection in Kommern focuses on objects that document life in the Rhineland and make it comprehensible.
