A walk around the open air museum is a travel back in time. Both the Rural collection, the Town and the Residential area have houses with open doors you can look through. Some of them also have audio guides telling about the house and the time period it is from.
There are also several open exhibitions in the open air museum.
More activities in the Daily programme calendar.
