Handwerksmuseum Ovelgönne, Craft museum in Ovelgönne, Germany.

Handwerksmuseum Ovelgönne is a craft museum housed in a clinker-brick Oldenburg gabled house built in 1773 by court usher and auction agent Anton Friedrich Rumpf. Its collection holds tools and equipment from workshops and businesses of the textile, wood, metal and leather trades, along with rural work implements and everyday objects. A model of Ovelgönne Castle stands in the museum garden.

The museum building was constructed in 1773 as a residence and reflects the characteristic architecture of an Oldenburg gabled house. The collection focuses on documenting craft techniques that were practiced in this region across several centuries.

The museum shows how craft trades were passed down through generations and how people once worked in their daily occupations. The displayed tools and workspaces tell stories of a life that depended entirely on skill and experience.

The museum occupies a house from 1773 near the spot where the Breite Straße once crossed a drawbridge into the castle grounds; a model of Ovelgönne Castle stands in the museum garden. The building was gutted and renovated from the ground plate to the roof ridge, and a new annex with a working smithy, a workshop room and an object store in the attic was added.

The museum operates a separate blacksmith workshop in an adjacent building where temporary exhibitions are held throughout the year. This functioning workshop allows visitors to experience craft techniques directly.
