A Journey Back to Rural Bielefeld Around 1850

This guided tour at the Bielefeld Farmhouse Museum opens a vibrant window into the everyday life of the 19th century. On August 9, 2026, the museum tour will take place from 3:00 PM to 4:00 PM, guiding visitors through the historic farm complex and the farmhouse garden, showcasing how living, working, and life in the countryside were once connected.

History You Can Touch in the Historic Farm Complex

The tour combines local history with an authentic atmosphere. The Bielefeld Farmhouse Museum is one of the special cultural sites in the city, conveying rural life around 1850 in a faithful setting. Those interested in Westphalian everyday culture, historical architecture, and regional identity will experience a compact, professionally curated city tour in a museum context.

Between Farmhouse Garden, Farm Complex, and Museum Life

Particularly appealing is the view of the farm complex as an ensemble: buildings, garden, and paths together tell a story of work, provision, and family life. The museum tour creates closeness to themes such as self-sufficiency, agriculture, and artisanal tradition. Thus, a short visit becomes a true discovery experience with cultural enrichment.

An Outing for the Curious, Families, and Culture Enthusiasts

The tour is aimed at visitors aged 12 and over and is suitable for anyone who wants to experience history not only by reading but also spatially and sensually. The format is clear, relatable, and ideal for an inspiring museum afternoon in Bielefeld. With the compact time window of one hour, there is enough space for further impressions in the museum and on the grounds.
