Darß-Museum, museum in Germany
The Darß-Museum is a historic building in Prerow that documents the past of the Darss peninsula. It displays exhibits about fishing, sailing, local crafts, and the natural environment of the region, along with models of old buildings and everyday objects from former times.
The building is a protected monument that reflects the long history of settlement on the peninsula. The exhibits show how life developed through dependence on fishing and sailing, and how people adapted to this coastal landscape over centuries.
The museum displays traditional craftsmanship of the region, particularly through doors and objects that reflect how locals built their homes and shaped their surroundings. These items show the skills and styles that defined daily life for generations of people living here.
The museum is located in a garden with old oak trees near Prerow town center and can be easily combined with a walk along the beach or through the forests. Visitors are advised to check current opening times beforehand, as the building may be closed periodically for renovations.
Every Friday, tours are offered in Low German, allowing visitors to experience the local language and the stories rooted in it directly. These tours provide direct access to the cultural identity of the region in a way that is possible only here.
