"Uns lütt Museum" Dargun
The name is deceptive, because the region's largest museum of everyday history is located in 17 rooms, on 2000m² of exhibition space and in the outdoor area - a museum you can touch and try out.
A museum of a special kind is located in the former guest house of the monastery and castle complex in Dargun. It is a comprehensive collection of the ordinary and the extraordinary. The exhibits once belonged to the house, farm and garden, were needed in old crafts or were used by our ancestors in agriculture or forestry. The medicine room contains utensils used by farmers, dentists and vets. The stationmaster's "office", as it can be seen, was saved from the station at the end of Dargun's railroad history. The exhibition on flight and expulsion at the end of the Second World War with original accounts of those affected is remarkable; it also attracted a great deal of attention on northern television. Visitors to the museum will find further agricultural equipment and machines in the spacious outdoor area and on the threshing floor. Almost all of them are in working order - they are there to be touched and tried out. Go for it! Swing the blacksmith's hammer yourself, hammer cheese into the cobbler's shoes or work wood on an old draw bench in the wheelwright's workshop. And don't miss the lovingly laid out farm garden. "Uns lütt Museum", run by an association on a voluntary basis, has grown into a prestigious museum. Its dedicated members have lovingly designed the exhibition rooms, maintain the historical machines and tools and organize special exhibitions and activity days. Opening hours: April-October Saturday/Sunday 1.30 pm - 4.30 pm July/August also Wednesday and Thursday 1.30 pm - 4.30 pm Group tours all year round by appointment 039959-20381

Fish ladder in the Dargun monastery and castle complex
● Dargun
Since 2017, there has been a fish ladder in the Dargun monastery and castle complex, which comprises 90 steps and overcomes a height difference of 9.5 m. The outlet of the monastery lake in Dargun was modified in 2017. The new weir installed regulates the water level using a mechanical balance system without human intervention. The intention is to prevent the flooding that has occurred in the past from happening again in the future. A fish ladder has been built next to the weir. This means that the Röcknitzbach is ecologically passable as far as the Klostersee in accordance with the objectives of the European Water Framework Directive. This means that the fish species that see the light of day in the headwaters of rivers can swim downstream towards the sea without being hindered by weirs, interlocks or barrages. Later, they return to the place where they were born to deposit their offspring in the same place. The fish ladder comprises a total of 90 steps and overcomes a height difference of around 9.5 m.
