Spreewald-Museum Lubbenau
About
Come on a journey through time and immerse yourself in the everyday hustle and bustle of a Spreewald town as it looked 150 years ago, when the scents of exotic products like coffee, cocoa and spices wafted through the colonial goods store. Take a peek inside historical shops and handicraft workshops, see the furrier with his fine furs, the shoemakers and weavers, or discover the fine lace and traditional costumes of the clothing store. The historical Spreewald Railway will set the heart of every technology fan racing! The Spreewald, or ‘woods of the river Spree’, was a secluded area into the 19th century. Many small places could only be reached using waterways. The railway opened up the region to entirely new opportunities. Commandeer the engine driver’s cabin of the original steam locomotive 995703 and have a look at the old instruments or make yourself comfortable in the wooden compartments of the passenger and luggage carriages from 1897.
