ausstellungmuseumstour

For more than forty years, Johann Krogger collected folk art and, in the broadest sense, historical curiosities, illustrating the life of farmers in the region with around 5,000 exhibits. Admire needle flippers, gramophones, and numerous memorabilia from the past. At the Volkskundliches Museum, visitors are not only transported back to the "good old days" but can also see extraordinary and curious items, such as a drill that makes square holes or a rare "Kracherl bottle" with a ball. In the pavilion, you will find a large number of confession and souvenir notes from around the world. Guided tours are offered year-round by prior telephone arrangement.
