Hjerl Heath

The museum extends across 20 hectares featuring over 50 buildings relocated from different parts of Jutland, representing rural Danish architecture and lifestyle.

The collection includes Jutland's oldest farm, Vinkelgården, from 1546, along with structures that span from the 17th century to the early 20th century.

During summer and Christmas periods, volunteers wearing period costumes demonstrate traditional crafts, farming methods, and daily activities from past centuries.

The museum operates with seasonal hours, offering guided tours, a restaurant serving Danish cuisine, and free admission for visitors under 18 years old.

A functional 1858 red watermill conducts flour grinding demonstrations, while a century-old steam locomotive operates during special revival periods.
