Oberpfälzer Freilandmuseum Neusath-Perschen

The Oberpfälzer Freilandmuseum Neusath-Perschen is an open-air museum with around 50 reconstructed buildings from various Upper Palatinate regions. The buildings display traditional construction and how people lived in rural areas.

The collection documents rural life spanning several centuries, from early building methods to later agricultural developments. This span shows how construction techniques and daily practices gradually changed across the region.

Visitors can observe daily crafts like bread baking and fishing that shaped generations of inhabitants. These lived practices show how people once managed everyday tasks and passed skills through their families.

The grounds spread across a large area and are best explored on foot, with sturdy shoes recommended. A visit takes several hours, so bring plenty of water and allow ample time.

Each building was carefully dismantled from its original location, transported, and reassembled on this site. This required complex work to preserve the historical accuracy of every structure.

Opening Hours: March-November Tuesday-Sunday 09:00-18:00
