Hohenloher Freilandmuseum

The Hohenloher Freilandmuseum Wackershofen in the hamlet of Wackershofen, which belongs to Schwäbisch Hall, is one of seven regional open-air museums in Baden-Württemberg. It was opened in 1983 and presents here relocated old buildings from the northeast of Baden-Württemberg, mainly from the districts of Hohenlohe and Schwäbisch Hall, but also from the Main-Tauber district, the Heilbronn district, the Rems-Murr and Ostalb districts, and the districts of Heidenheim and Ludwigsburg. In more than 60 converted, partly reconstructed buildings from the region between the Neckar and Main rivers, the Swabian Alb and the Franconian Heights, from areas such as the Hohenlohe Plain, the Swabian-Franconian Forest and the Taubergrund, the history of the rural population and their way of life from the late Middle Ages to the 20th century is documented in Wackershofen.

Museum director since 2013 is Michael Happe.
