The open-air museum
The Hessenpark Open-Air Museum is located in the middle of the Hochtaunus region. On an area of 65 hectares with over 100 houses, the former rural village life in Hesse is presented. Hands-on activities and extensive exhibitions offer history at your fingertips! Book a discounted museum ticket directly with your room reservation!
Did you know ? Most of the buildings in the open-air museum have been relocated, i.e. dismantled at the original site and rebuilt in the museum. One exception is our country hotel, which is a replica with house facades from Giessen. The timber-framed buildings were all located around the Giessen market square until they were destroyed during the war. We hope you enjoy your experience at the Hessenpark!
