Museumsbauernhof Wennerstorf

Museumsbauernhof Wennerstorf is an agricultural museum in Hollenstedt occupying a farmhouse with cow stables, horse stalls, threshing floor, and family living areas all under one roof. The structure demonstrates how regional farms were organized and operated in earlier times.

Parts of the main house date to the 16th century, making it one of the oldest farm complexes in the Harburg district. The property continued in agricultural use for centuries before being preserved as a museum.

The farm museum displays rural life from the 1930s through furnished rooms, period farm tools, and traditional livestock breeds still present today. Visitors see how people and animals lived and worked together during that era.

The museum operates from May through October, with a cafe serving 1930s-style food and a farm shop selling traditional products. Visitors should wear comfortable shoes as there is much to explore and the grounds are partly uneven.

The farm maintains rare livestock breeds including Ramelsloh chickens and Bentheim sheep while operating under certified organic farming practices. This makes it a working farm as well as a museum.
