history

The Museum of Local Lore and History was founded in 1976. The first exhibits were exhibited in a half-timbered house with an extension and former administration pavilions. In the 1980s, the gap between the half-timbered house and the administration pavilions was closed with a hall in which the many large devices from the agriculture collection could finally be housed in a stylish manner. As the pavilions were getting on in years, the city of Dietzenbach decided to build a new one. The groundbreaking ceremony for this took place in 1998. On the Hessentag in 2001 in Dietzenbach, the new premises were presented to the public.

collection

Today the museum includes collections on the following topics:

  • Finds from Dietzenbach and the surrounding area are presented in the new building. The exhibits cover the period of prehistory and early history, the Paleolithic , Iron Age , the time in the Roman Empire and the Middle Ages up to the 19th and 20th centuries.
  • The village street brings the village character of the 19th and 20th centuries to life in the craftsmen's rooms of carpenters, shoemakers, wagons and saddlers.
  • In the film and cinema history department you can find out how moving images are created, how people perceive them and how the equipment on display was used in the past.
  • The hall contains an extensive collection of large agricultural equipment.
  • The exhibition in the half-timbered house illustrates daily life in the 20th century. It addresses the tasks of the farmer as self-sufficient and offers an insight into the bourgeois furniture and the children's toys of that time.
