Handwerksmuseum Ovelgönne

The Handwerksmuseum Ovelgönne offers a fascinating journey through 650 years of craft and everyday history in a historic town house dating back to 1773, spread over 520 m².

The museum is more than just a collection: here you can get hands-on, try things out, and experience stories together – perfect for families, kids, and school groups of all ages.

Exciting special exhibitions change regularly, opening up new insights into crafts, everyday culture, and regional biographies. Genuine workshops and a museum garden invite you to explore.

• Engaging guided tours through all workshops and exhibition rooms, told by passionate museum staff.

• Hands-on workshops where you can try historic blacksmithing, baking, and woodworking yourself.

• Interactive programs for school classes from first through eighth grade that bring history to life beyond books.

• The digital OvelgönnerZeitkurbel lets you playfully and tangibly explore 650 years of history.

• At the digital community board, you can share your own craft stories and become part of the vibrant museum world.

Interactive learning games on regional history offer an exciting knowledge journey, and you have the chance to help shape the museum's future – for example, with your voice or your own traditional Bockhorner klinker, which will be laid into the museum’s pavement as a lasting symbol.

A highlight for families and school groups who want to touch history, join in, and experience it together here. 🛠️✨
