About

At the Hessenpark open-air museum, fresh cider is pressed from Possmann apples in one of the old farmyards, to drink at the bar or take home. Kids take a turn at small hand presses in the cider house and make their own juice. Around that: an exhibit of old apple varieties, a fruit rally across the grounds, and tastings of apples from the museum's own orchard trees.

Kids free, adults €14
