Oldenburger Wallmuseum

The Oldenburger Wallmuseum is an archaeological museum in Oldenburg in Holstein housed within a reconstructed medieval village setting with artifacts from local excavations. The collection includes tools, pottery, household items, and other objects that reveal how people lived and worked in this region over 1000 years ago.
