Hagen Open-air Museum

The Hagen Westphalian Open-Air Museum is a historical centre at Hagen in the southeastern Ruhr region, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. The outside exhibition hall brings a touch of talented exchange history into the present, and it adopts a hands-on strategy. On its grounds extending for around 42 ha, not exclusively are urban and rustic exchanges essentially "showed" alongside their workshops and instruments, yet in more than twenty of the about sixty remade workshops, they are as yet rehearsed, and intrigued guests can, some of the time without anyone else's input, partake in the creation.

In 1960, the Westphalian Open-Air Museum was established, and after thirteen years, the entryways opened to the general population. Dissimilar to most outdoors historical centres, which indicate regular day to day existence on the homestead or in the nation as it was in days passed by, the Hagen Open-Air Museum puts the historical backdrop of these exercises in Westphalia in the fore. From the late eighteenth century through the early long periods of the Industrial Revolution to the very industrialized society rising in the mid twentieth century, the guest can encounter the advancement of these exchanges and the business in the area.

Specialties and exchanges exhibited at the Westphalian Open-Air Museum incorporate rope making, smithing, fermenting, heating, tanning, printing, processing, papermaking, and so on. A vital fascination is the triphammer workshop. Once the mallet is locked in, a skilled worker goes to work uproariously producing a grass shearer, passing it between the sledge and the iron block underneath in a procedure called peening. The Hagen Westphalian Open-Air Museum is open from March or April until October.
