Niederrheinisches Freilichtmuseum, Open-air museum in Grefrath, Germany.
The Niederrheinisches Freilichtmuseum spans four hectares with historical farm buildings, workshops, and traditional gardens displaying regional architecture and crafts.
The museum complex opened in 1973 to preserve and present the rural heritage of the Lower Rhine region through authentic relocated structures.
Inside the Dorenburg building, visitors discover exhibitions about folklore, while craftsmen demonstrate traditional techniques in restored historical workshops.
The museum welcomes visitors from Tuesday to Sunday between 10:00 AM and 6:00 PM, with reduced hours during winter months from November to March.
