Museum für Landtechnik und Landarbeit Börry

Museum
A historical tour through 200 years of agricultural history in the Weserbergland

The listed building ensemble with farmhouse, barn, sheepfold, bakehouse and the old Niederbörry church was acquired by the municipality of Emmerthal in 1985 and extensively renovated and restored with the support of the state.

In the buildings and on the large outdoor area with three sheds, various exhibitions guide visitors through the development from a labor-intensive farm to a technical agricultural business. The old workshops of the village craftsmen, such as wheelwrights, blacksmiths and shoemakers, can also be admired. The large outdoor equipment is on display under the sheds. Here you will also find the tractor exhibition with vehicles built from 1938 onwards.

The objects on display in the museum were and are used in local agriculture. They are all still in working order and provide visitors with a vivid insight into the development of agricultural work. However, the museum is not just for exhibition purposes - it is still alive. Services are held in the church, couples get married there and children are baptized. Concerts are held. Special events and numerous themed lectures in the conference room of the vicarage are further highlights of the museum year.

The museum café in the old bakery invites visitors to linger and enjoy themselves on Sundays and public holidays.
