The open-air museum Schwerin-Mueß (Mecklenburg Volkskundemuseum Schwerin-Mueß) is located in the former fishing and farming village of Mueß, which was incorporated into Schwerin in 1936, directly on the southern shore of Lake Schwerin .
The open-air museum provides information about the way of life of the Mecklenburg rural population from the 17th century to the beginning of the 20th century. Most of the buildings on the museum grounds come from the old village center. This historically grown village complex has remained almost unchanged for centuries until today.
Museum complex and collections
The approximately 5.5 hectare museum complex includes seventeen buildings and objects that can be visited. The centerpiece of the museum, the shortly after the Thirty Years' War created Büdnerei is with courtyard and barn.
