Celtic homestead at Dünsberg
Highlight • Historical Site
The reconstruction of a Celtic farmstead on the Dünsberg, built in 2006, consists of a residential building (main building) and two outbuildings, which are modeled on storage and commercial buildings.
Access is through a reconstructed Keltentor, which gives a good insight into the construction of Celtic city walls.
The main building serves as an information and educational center, where the history, in particular about the life of the Celts on Dünsberg and the flora and fauna of the Dünsberg is informed.
The small building erected as a pile dwelling is a free reconstruction of a storage building excavated on the eastern spur of the Dünsberg. Such "four-post stores" belonged to the farms throughout the Celtic period. Among other things, the pile dwelling prevented pests from reaching the stocks stored here (eg grain).
The Celtic homestead is to give the visitors everything worth knowing in an overall presentation before entering the world of the Dünsberg, whereby the Celtic culture has a prominent position.
Opening hours: April-October (at the opening days of the rest area)
Wednesday (during the summer holidays) and Saturday: 13:00 - 17:00 Sunday 10:00 - 17:00
Guided tours are also possible outside the opening hours by appointment.
