Wellings Landsbymuseum
Wellings Landsbymuseum is an open air museum in Lintrup , Denmark .
From 1971 until his death, the Danish painter and collector Søren Welling (* 1917 in Skanderup near Lunderskov, † 1996) collected rare everyday objects that were worth preserving. In 1964 he moved to the village of Mejlby and began building a museum village there in 1973, in which life around 1900 is shown. When building the individual houses, only old materials from the area were recycled. Little by little, several buildings were built that are connected to each other and give the overall impression of a small village. Here there is a church, a grocery store, restaurant, hairdressing salon, post office and various living rooms and bedrooms to visit, as well as historical agricultural machinery and equipment.
