Tips
In Schmarbeck near Faßberg, two thatched sheepfolds have been preserved, standing side by side and representing a striking example of traditional heathland building culture. The older building, dating from the early 18th century, is a half-timbered barn on a fieldstone base with a hipped roof, while the younger one is a two-post structure with a fully hipped roof. For many generations, both buildings served as sheep farms. Their original construction and unique layout make them important testimonies to the agricultural use and architectural history of the Lüneburg Heath.
