Intro

The Schinznach-Dorf local history museum showcases the rural culture of the Schenkenberg valley and the Aargau region. The exhibition focuses on agriculture and domestic economy, viticulture, straw weaving, oven and farm ceramics and schooling.

Historical tools, works of art and documents have been lovingly displayed and described here since 1961. Visitors can immerse themselves in the traditional rural farming culture that was practiced in the Schenkenberg Valley until the 20th century.

But the journey back in time goes even further: into the realm of the dinosaurs, when the Schenkenberg Valley was still under water. A collection of well-preserved fossils of sea urchins, starfish and other sea creatures tells of the former inhabitants.

Drinks are available in the bistro and the neighboring Mittlere Mühle museum is also open.
