Description

An old farm mill, built in 1576, serves as the home of the Forest Farmers' Museum, which tells the story of the forest farmers and their ancillary trades. Their crafts are showcased in 13 workshops: from basket weavers to lumberjacks, carpenters, lime burners, charcoal burners, pitch makers, wheelwrights, and wagon drivers. In the adjacent open-air museum, visitors can see an original sawmill.
