Map / Westerwald Landscape Museum

The Westerwald Landscape Museum showcases life and work from past centuries in several historic buildings. It offers exciting insights into the crafts, traditions, and everyday culture of the region.

At the Landscape Museum Westerwald, visitors immerse themselves in the history of rural life. Authentically furnished houses, workshops, and exhibitions provide a vivid picture of the everyday life of earlier generations. The expansive grounds invite exploration of the buildings at one's own pace. Many details – from tools to furniture to clothing – tell stories from a time when craftsmanship and nature were closely intertwined. The museum is particularly suitable for families and guests who want to experience regional culture up close.
