This museum island consists of two buildings: the former sheep and pigpen, and the actual butter mill building with its authentic butter mill barrel and its waterwheel-driven transmission. Here, you'll find information about the building's history and the Brogmus butter mail-order business. Annually changing special exhibitions can be found in the adjacent building.
