Muzeum v přírodě Rymice, Open-air museum in Rymice, Czech Republic.
Muzeum v přírodě Rymice is an open-air museum in Czech Republic that displays seven traditional buildings from the Haná region, including farmhouses, workshops, and a Renaissance fortress across extensive grounds. The collection features thatched-roof houses, animal shelters, and several working craft rooms that illustrate rural life from earlier times.
The buildings date back several centuries and showcase agricultural life in eastern Haná, with most structures remaining in their original locations since the 18th century. They were later brought together to preserve and document the heritage of rural communities in the region.
Craft workshops demonstrate traditional blacksmithing and saddlery techniques that visitors can watch in action. These active trades show how people in the region once made their everyday tools and goods.
The museum is open Tuesday through Sunday from May to September, with guided tours available for both groups and individual visitors. It is wise to wear comfortable shoes and allow time to explore the various buildings and working craft rooms throughout the site.
A wooden windmill of German design was transported from the nearby village of Bořenovice and now stands among the farmhouses at the site. This unusual structure shows how diverse the building types of the region once were.
