Since 2004 the Emhoff sheep pen has belonged to the museum. This exhibit provides information about the historic forms of farming used by heath farmers around 1850. It shows a typical house inventory and the tools used on a heath farm.

Exhibition

The exhibition provides information about farming on the Lüneburg Heath around 1850.

History

The house was built in 1742 as a traditional Low German house and is the oldest farmhouse in the Lüneburg Heath Nature Park. In 1907 the building was dismantled in Hanstedt and reconstructed in Wilsede by the teacher Bernhard Dageförde as a farmhouse museum. The museum is affiliated with the larger open-air museum "Freilichtmuseum am Kiekeberg" (near the southern border of Hamburg). Since 2004 a renovated sheep shed on the "Emhoff" farmstead is used for exhibitions.

gollark: > strings prefixed by the length are bad because you cant take a subset of the string by just adding an offset to the pointer and have it be a valid stringWait, you can't really do that anyway with null-terminated ones if you want a subset of fixed length.
gollark: You shouldn't do that. That would possibly cause so many memory issues.
