Technik-Museum Pütnitz, Technical museum in Ribnitz-Damgarten, Germany.
Technik-Museum Pütnitz is a technical museum in aircraft hangars of a former airfield and displays about 750 exhibits from Eastern and Southeastern Europe. The collection includes vehicles, machinery, household appliances, and everyday technical items from decades past.
The museum is housed in aircraft hangars on the site of an old airfield and these buildings date from the 1950s. The collection preserves the technical heritage of everyday life from East Germany and other Eastern European countries.
The exhibits show objects that shaped daily life: radios, televisions, toys, and household appliances tell the story of technology in East Germany and Eastern Europe. Visitors recognize their own past or learn how people lived with technology back then.
The site is best visited between May and October when additional activities are available. Visitors can drive Russian trucks on an outdoor course or operate amphibious vehicles.
The museum owns a remarkable collection of fully functional vehicles, from military equipment to civilian transportation. These machines are regularly demonstrated at technical events, allowing deeper insight into how they actually work.
