Indianermuseum Gevezin, Native American museum in Blankenhof, Germany

The museum contained over 4,000 exhibits documenting the origins and development of North American Indigenous peoples through the twentieth century.

Karl-Heinrich Gehricke founded the museum in 2002 after collecting Native American artifacts during his travels and living among different tribes since 1975.

The museum displayed traditional clothing, hunting equipment, war items, jewelry, and everyday objects from various North American Indigenous communities.

The museum occupied a renovated 1912 manor house in Blankenhof until its closure in 2012 following economic difficulties and the death of its founder.

The collection included a Karl May memorial site and an art gallery featuring paintings by German artists from the nineteenth century.
