    Tips

    The reason for the idea of an Iron Age homestead as an open-air museum was archaeological excavation finds of the State Office for the Preservation of Monuments in the "Grafhorn" corridor some 30 years ago, during which a historic pit house came to light. It was a deepened scaffolding house. Such pit houses served mainly as outbuildings, primarily for craft activities.

    In addition, there are numerous finds from the immediate vicinity, which date back to the Iron Age, can be made available on site or are and are ideal as exhibits for illustrative purposes. These include chain links, knives, iron ax, slag pieces, charcoal, urns, pots with corpse fire, cover shells and Beigefäße. Even today, charcoal-kiln places in the fields are to be found as deep-black, round surfaces, but also grave mounds or rotten pits, in the closer environment.

      You could include my tour "from stone to stone" which goes via Arpke, Sievershausen, Immensen back to Grafhorn.

        Here you can treat yourself to a cold wheat or homemade cakes and pies for coffee and other delicious food.
