Eilidh in Beuren!!!


Hey there!

You cannot imagine what I did last week!! I was with Karina and our grade 5 and together we went to a special museum.

The latter is in Beuren and is an “open-air exhibition” where we were able to live in a way people did more than 200 years ago! That was just awesome!!! I visited five different houses and was surprised how the people had lived in the past. Of course there had not been a heating for the families but the guide told us that due to that fact the cowshed had been built next to the kitchen to bring warmth to the people! Isn’t that amazing??!!

Later on we were divided into two different groups. I decided to be part of the so called “fire-group”. A lady from the museum did a workshop with us. She showed us how a fire had been lighted more than 200 years ago. We even were allowed to try those different methods… but to be honest, I didn’t manage to light a fire but the little ones did!!

By the way, there was also a nice little bakehouse! I found a leaflet with different recipes there (you can see it in the picture)

I am looking forward to trying the the “Dätscher”- whatever that is =)

What a wonderful day in Beuren!!!
