Statarmuseet i Skåne

Statarmuseet exhibits tools, photographs, and personal belongings that document the daily experiences of agricultural workers in southern Sweden during past centuries.

The museum opened in 1995 following a project dedicated to documenting the lives of agricultural laborers, with its main building dating from 1886.

The museum preserves artifacts and stories from the statare system, where agricultural workers received housing and food as part of their employment compensation.

The museum maintains a KRAV-certified cafe serving local products, a bookstore, and educational programs designed for school groups throughout the year.

The six preserved apartments in Långa huset present different time periods of agricultural worker accommodation, offering direct insight into living conditions.
