Freilichtmuseum Diesdorf

Freilichtmuseum Diesdorf is an open-air museum in Saxony-Anhalt that brings together historical farmhouses and craft buildings from different regions of Germany. The structures come from various periods and show how rural building methods changed over time.

The museum was founded to rescue farmhouses that would otherwise have been destroyed by taking them apart and rebuilding them on this site. This made it possible to preserve traditions of rural architecture.

The buildings show how people lived and worked in rural areas long ago, with spaces that reflect their daily tasks and craft skills. Visitors can see how families cooked, wove, and managed their farms.

Plan your visit during dry weather, since this is an outdoor site with long walking paths throughout the grounds. Comfortable shoes and weather-appropriate clothing help you explore the entire area without difficulty.

The grounds include working gardens, orchards, and pastures with live animals that show how farming was actually practiced in those times. These living elements make the historical experience more direct and authentic.
