Moormuseum Moordorf

The Moormuseum Moordorf extends across 3.2 hectares of moor area, featuring reconstructed traditional buildings that illustrate regional peat extraction methods and agricultural practices.

The museum documents 200 years of East Frisian moor colony development through preserved clay houses, sod huts, and stone buildings dating from the 18th to 20th centuries.

Exhibitions present the daily routines of peat cutters, demonstrating their tools, working techniques, and living conditions in the moorland region of East Frisia.

The museum welcomes visitors from March 20 to October 31 between 10:00 and 18:00, with reduced hours during November from Monday to Friday, 09:00 to 13:00.

A wooden planking path leads visitors across an authentic raised bog to an observation platform where they can observe native moor plants like sundew.
