    The LWL Open Air Museum Detmold (LWL = Landschaftsverband Westfalen-Lippe, until 2006 Westfälisches Freilichtmuseum Detmold) is located in the Lippe town of Detmold in North Rhine-Westphalia. The bearer of the museum is the Landschaftsverband Westfalen-Lippe (LWL). Opened in 1971, the open-air museum bears the subtitle Westfälisches Landesmuseum für Volkskunde and is one of the most important of its kind in Europe and with 90 hectares and about 120 historic buildings claims to be the largest in Germany. You just have to see it - beautiful!

    The open-air museum shows around 120 historical buildings from all social classes and regions of Westphalia on over 90 hectares.

    Different villages are laid out. A horse and cart shuttles between the entrance and the Paderborner Hof.
