In the Walldürner district Gottersdorf, near the Bavarian border, lies the Odenwald open-air museum as the northernmost open-air museum in Baden-Wuerttemberg. "Badisch Sibirien" was called the Odenwald part of the Grand Duchy of Baden earlier; This was due to the remoteness of the area, the harsh climate and the modest livelihoods of the then rural population due to poor soil conditions. Here officials were convicted. In the second half of the 20th century Times have changed in many ways and today the peace-seeking tourist appreciates the beautiful landscape and the outskirts away from the major traffic flows and enjoys the museum complex at the former fishpond of the monastery Amorbach.
The staggered historical buildings provide a deep insight into the mostly simple, but also very captivating past of the past rural life and work. The range of 16 already completed houses of the not yet completed complex already extends from the modest Taglöhnerhäuschen to stately Großbauernhof, from the village postal agency to the Schasterei, from the Grünkerndarre to Ziegelhütte, with a period from the 17th to the 20th century. is detected.

On this long weekend of May 1st, another "Living History Event" took place. This time it was about the Thirty Years' War. In authentic furnishings from that time, life inside the old houses and outside is staged and acted out! Highly recommended!
The food is also very tasty and regional in the open-air museum!
