Museums for Kids in Berlin, 8 of 8: Museumsdorf Düppel



A reconstruction of a village from around 1200, built on the excavated site of a real 12th-century settlement. Across grounds the size of ten soccer fields, kids walk through thatched houses, storehouses, workshops, gardens and fields, and meet rare farm breeds such as Skudden sheep and the Düppel pasture pig.
On season weekends, volunteers in medieval dress cook, carve wood, work wool and demonstrate blacksmithing and pottery.
