The old Ahorn sheep farm is located in the middle of the diverse cultural landscape of the Coburg region. It houses the Coburg region's equipment museum with its newly designed exhibition "The farmer in March. People, animals and their tools".

A large barn, shepherd's house, bakery and pigsty are grouped around the 300-year-old sheep barn as the central exhibition building. The area is the starting point for numerous hiking trails. The "Schäferstuben" restaurant invites you to visit.
