Very impressive museum with old buildings from different parts of north Germany. Several houses are opened for entry to see the interior. Would definitely recommend to families with children

If you are new in Schleswig-Holstein state and if u r more into history...then this place will help u alot to explore more about the state....the place is quite nice ...its quite large and I open area so check the weather before planning ....I am impressed that they have all the historical information and details in English also. Although audio guides are only in German language but hope that they will update to English language also soon. There is fun slides for kids and food restaurants also if u feel hungry in between. In short ...perfect place for day trip.

I was visiting a concert of Hepta Polka and the location is beautiful. The historic buildings are in great shape and it was nice to take a walk on the property

We arrived 2h before the closing of the museum, paid full price, but were not told that all merchants and the fair would close 1h later. The houses are in a good shape but many were closed and many parts of the houses were also closed off to visitors. We have seen more "open" open air museums elsewhere in Germany. We also missed getting a historic feeling for life in the houses. Nobody was around to tell stories or show how things worked. That said, the grounds are in a good shape and the animals give the place some life. We don't recommend coming later in the afternoon. You need 3-4h minimum to see everything.

A wonderful place to visit and enjoy the old cultural history of north German houses and life stile.

very very beautiful and interesting place for adult and children

This is a huge site. Fantastic building. No feeling of having to rush around the exhibits, just go leisurely. Great restaurants.

The windmill is still there. They also made fun of my disability. I felt unsafe and unwanted. 5+ extra months of therapy.

A must see place, for all. The house's and old buildings really make u realize how hard people in those times had it. Modern technology has made today's life styles so easy. 👍👍

Both the outdoor and indoor exhibition were really great. Loved it. Heard there are events every now and then, e.g. bringing the old houses to life by having groups live there and re-enact life of the old days. Should be really interesting. You might want to check if you can catch one of these events if you happen to be around.

Lovely place. Lots to see and explore. Great walk from one house to the next.

Beautiful museum 👍 You can feel spirit of Deutschland there ♥️

An amazing place where you can spend the whole day. May be it’s the reason to visit Kiel because the town itself didn’t impress me so much. In the museum there is a wonderful cafe which serves tasty cakes and drinks.

On a beautiful day this is a nice place to be out in the open. You will get a glimpse of historic lifestyle of Schleswig-Holstein. There are handicraft souvenirs and even fresh baked bread and local cheese to buy here!

One of my favorite open air museum in Germany! Had a lot of fun.

One of the best open-air museums in Germany! It is the ideal place to visit for people of all ages, especially families with children. You can see more than 70 historic buildings from Northern Germany which have been relocated here. The buildings are spread out over a 60 acres large and beautifully landscaped area. Take at least half a day to fully enjoy! For lunch or dinner I can highly recommend the restaurant Drathenhof just at the entrance. For cake and coffee step by the „Meierei“ (historic dairy farm)

Because of the current health restrictions a large part of the buildings is closed for interior viewing, which is a shame, but not realy an issue because the site is so large. For children with no interest in historical buildings there is little to see and less to do exept for a few cuddly goats and a small funfair.
