LVR Open Air Museum Lindlar

Nature and culture like a hundred years ago

Enjoy nature and explore yesterday's rural culture. Immerse yourself in the past. Here at the LVR Open Air Museum in Lindlar, in the heart of the Berg Region and about 30 kilometers east of Cologne, you can experience up close how people lived on the land. The 30-hectare site is largely worked by horse and plow according to the historical model. Get to know very rare native animal and plant species. Here you can not only touch but also smell history. Look over the shoulder of the artisans as they demonstrate ancient working techniques or ask the housekeeper about old cooking recipes.
