Museum barn Ehlershof - Rostock Wulfshagen

Idyllically situated on the edge of the Rostock Heath, surrounded by forest, you will find a classic three-sided farm. The half-timbered barn houses a small, lovingly furnished museum. Here you can discover everyday objects from times gone by. If you book in advance, you can enjoy an individual guided tour of the museum barn. To the south of Fischland-Darß-Zingst is the Ehlershof museum barn in Rostock's Wulfshagen. The farm has been in the family since 1866 and resembles a classic three-sided farm consisting of a residential house, stable building and barn. In the barn there is a small, lovingly furnished museum that shows rural life from 1900 to 1950. From milk churns and rotary ironers to a functioning threshing box, many small and large items from times gone by are on display and sometimes even demonstrated. Individual guided tours and discussions are possible by appointment. The Ehlershof museum barn traditionally celebrates the opening of the season every year on Ascension Day. For many years, the Ehlers family has welcomed the congregation to a picnic on the farm after the service in the village church. The group of visitors comes by bike, tractor, Kremser and co. to experience a cozy family day. In the afternoon, a puppet show is performed to entertain the younger guests. Food and drink will be provided. Every two years at the beginning of September, the Ehlershof museum barn invites you to the farm and threshing festival. The highlight is the threshing with a restored threshing box. There are also various culinary stalls and a tractor exhibition, changing demonstrations (potato trail, reaper, plowing, etc.) on the grounds. For the little ones, the Ehlershof is organizing a children's area with a straw castle, handicrafts and all sorts of things to do. There will also be a puppet show at the farm festival. In the evening we invite you to "Danz up de Däl".
