The viticulture exhibition is organized according to the annual cycle of the vine. A large mural at the entrance illustrates what a vineyard might have looked like at the turn of the century. The first part of the exhibition is dedicated to winter and spring work in the vineyard. Equipment for tending the vines, various field and spraying tools are on display. Numerous panels provide information about the techniques of vine propagation at the time, about pests and diseases. In addition to the magnificently restored trotte from 1788, you can admire a whipping machine. Antique wine barrels, a customer mill and home distillery complete the richly stocked exhibition.

In addition to the wine-growing exhibition, numerous museum exhibits from forestry and agriculture, road construction and the fire department can be discovered in specially designed rooms. A permanent exhibition with film is dedicated to the Wetzikon-Meilen and Uster-Oetwil branch lines.
