The peasant museum with its collection of historical tools and equipment gives the visitor an impression of the everyday life of a peasant in a time when all the work had to be done without the help of electricity or motors, only with the muscle power of man and animal. The visitor is shown how hard the farmer's life was once. Through human ingenuity, through the intelligence and the wealth of experience of the farmers, simple devices were then improved over time and developed into machines as we know them today - a great cultural achievement.
