The Altenmarkter Heimatmuseen in Altenmarkt-Zauchensee consist of the Hoamathaus and the Dechantshoftenne. The Hoamathaus covers the historical role of women and the traditional way of life up into the 1960s. The Dechantshoftenne shows large agricultural implements and tools from earlier times. There are regular temporary exhibitions and historical guided tours on the history and culture of the area. The museums are centrally located and easy to reach.
What visitors say
A small village museum that visitors regularly have entirely to themselves; several reviewers describe being given a personal tour by a member of staff who knew a great deal about the region. On show are Pongauer Perchten masks, a historical classroom with slates and Kurrentschrift, and agricultural tools in the Dechantshofstadel, part of which may be tried out. Those who do not speak German miss a large part of the explanation. Expect a local museum, not a large exhibition house.
- · Check the opening times in advance; the museum is open on only a few half-days.
- · Without German, little of the tour remains.
