    Tips

    An excellent museum that provides a fascinating insight into the history of peat extraction. The adjacent grounds also feature a settler's farmstead from that era and a variety of tools. The museum's moorland area is easily explored on foot (approx. 3 km).

            Old machines can always be discovered here, some of them are in their original condition or have been lovingly restored
