Welcome to the Outdoor Museum Schmiedbauern!

This open air museum offers visitors an insight "in miniature" into farming traditions in the Gosau valley which is part of the UNESCO World Heritage Region "Hallstatt-Dachstein-Salzkammergut".

These traditions are an important part of our cultural heritage. The "Paarhof" is an example of a traditional farm yard. Exhibits in this museum, which is still under construction, include a farm house dating back to the end of the 16th/turn of the 17th centuries and a large stable/barn. There are also several out-buildings.
