Activities: We visited the Vogtländisches Freilichtmuseum Landwüst to experience the rural life of the region from 1782 to 1940. We explored the houses, saw exhibits, and the kids enjoyed seeing and feeding the animals

Highlights: The kids loved the animals, especially Walter the goat and Dolly the sheep. They also enjoyed the old games on the farm. We spent a whole day there! ✨
