Welcome to Blaudruck Scheeßel UNESCO-Kulturerbe
The Scheeßel local history museum, founded in 1913, now consists of two farm complexes, around 300 m apart, with a total of 13 historic half-timbered buildings.
Old crafts are on display at the Meyerhof, located in the center of Scheeßel. Among other things, a blueprinting and weaving workshop can be visited there. Since 2020, a permanent exhibition has provided information about blue printing, which was classified as an intangible world cultural heritage of humanity in 2018. There is also a blueprinting tour that leads through Scheeßel. Changing special exhibitions can be seen in the Kunstgewerbehaus, a gallery first opened in 1908.
At the Heimathaus site, around 300 m away, the rural living and working environment of the 19th century is documented. This site embodies a living museum in its diversity and shows the rural life of long-forgotten times. All equipment can be used and demonstrated.
