Haus im Moos

Haus im Moos is a building in the Donaumoos, Bavaria's largest lowland moor, featuring traditional wooden construction with regional craftsmanship details. Today it serves as an environmental station and open-air museum with exhibits about the moorland and how people lived there.

The building comes from about 200 years of settlement history in the Donaumoos, when people began to clear and farm the moorland. Its development reflects how people adapted to the unique conditions of this landscape.

The building displays how people lived and worked in this moorland, with exhibits about traditional crafts and farming methods. Visitors see the central role agriculture played for the community and how closely daily life was connected to the natural environment.

The site is accessible with guided tours and digital resources available through a museum application. Visitors can explore exhibition areas both indoors and in the open spaces around the building.

The site documents how people created artificial drainage systems to make the wet landscape habitable and usable. This engineering achievement made settlement possible in an area that was naturally unsuitable for human life.
