This museum documents the impressive life of humankind over
different periods. With more than 5,000 archaeological findings
and folkloristic exhibits, you can discover step by step
development from prehistoric man, who lived from hunting and
collecting eatable things, up to modern civilization.
The first part of the museum is dedicated to the prehistory of
man and to the first settlements. The following part covers
self-sufficiency, a way of life that has accompanied man for
millions of years. Agriculture, weaving, wine-growing and
fruit-growing are the main topics. In the last area of the
museum you can see the development of professions and the
changes in everyday life which have introduced modern society.

An educational guide, experiments and multimedial animation make
the objects "live" and take you into the past.
One of
the most important parts of the museum is dedicated to weaving:
linen, hemp, wool and silk; their processing is very
impressive and their history has been very important for people
over the ages. An extensive number of objects show you the
processing of raw materials and the production of textiles from
prehistory up to the 1950s.
This museum was founde d
in 1976 but in 2003 a new concept for this museum was born.
