Ducks and pheasants Hunters annually kill approximately 500,000 mallards in Denmark, which gives the mallard the second highest number of birds killed – second only to the pheasant, with approximately 700,000 birds killed. A large proportion of these birds are endangered, otherwise there wouldn't be so many, but it's hard to…
Winter food – frugality and luxury When the farmer stocked up on his winter supplies, it could turn out that food was scarce – and it was a long time until the next harvest. Then one had to save on the leftovers and find substitutes and stretch what was left. If hunger gnawed for too long, people could be tempted to indulge in…
The wolf is coming The wolf has re-inhabited the Danish nature, and where it was previously hated and therefore exterminated, it may be a different story when it returns after 200 years of absence. The wolf is originally a natural part of the Danish nature, and the discussion about how we should handle it…
Clothes on the body – wool and linen It was especially the women in the old farming communities who took responsibility for the tasks of processing wool and linen and producing clothes for both everyday and festive occasions.

We can still find evidence that they live here by looking for the traces they leave behind. Museum exhibitions Age-appropriate dialogue-based tour of the museum's exhibitions,…
Easter traditions Easter week, the last week of Lent, was characterized by silence, seriousness and fear of evil forces. Each day of this week had its own name, and certain customs were associated with it. Maundy Thursday and especially Good Friday were quiet days with a lot of seriousness. No one was allowed to make noise, either at work or at play. The evil…
The grain harvest has always been the highlight of the year and the busiest time for the farmer. The grain harvest is the result of a whole year's effort: last year's cleaning and selection of the grain to be stored and sown in the field in the spring, the autumn ploughing, spreading manure, spring ploughing, sowing and finally patiently waiting for the grain to ripen.

Grain and butter Until the end of the 19th century, people baked their own bread at home on farms and in their houses. The daily bread was rye bread.
