The Sudeten Germans made up around 90 percent of the population in the first post-war years and set a cultural and technical focus, especially through the knowledge of glass production brought with them from the Gablonz area , which was used to establish 40 companies in Trappenkamp and as the Gablonz glass industry until the 1950s made in Schleswig-Holstein laid the foundation for economic development in Trappenkamp. The museum shows products from this period in the form of bowls, vases, buttons and crystal chandeliers.
Photographs, site plans and old newspaper clippings provide information about the military use of the naval arsenal and the development of the refugee settlement up to the founding of the Trappenkamp community in 1956.
