Intro
The village museum is housed in the stately Aargau thatched-roof house from 1802, a ridge-stand building with four high storeys, formerly thatched and now reed-roofed.
The village museum is housed in the stately Aargau thatched-roof house dating from 1802, a ridge-stand building with four high storeys, formerly thatched and now reed-roofed. Exhibits from prehistory to modern times document the history of the village. A salt cellar with salt scales, parlors with tiled stoves, a kitchen with a wood-burning stove, a storage and vaulted cellar, a farmer's garden and an orchard all show the life of a family of farmers around 1900. The development of agricultural equipment, the traditional trades of thatchers, dune drillers, wainwrights, file cutters, carpenters, joiners, tüchelbohrer, shoemakers, cigar makers, blacksmiths, butchers, washerwomen, forestry workers, beekeepers and the history of the brickworks and the FAMA iron yarn factory are illustrated by impressive objects.
Special exhibition 2024: "Öises Strouhus rette - Documentation on woodworm & broken beams."
