On the outer edges of Hessenpark we found these buildings. The one above is a reconstruction project underway. The building below is a huge warehouse where they must store equipment and tools and things used in the park to recreate the buildings. The Germans take their history seriously and I’m so glad for that. This work is done carefully and purposefully.
Below is the photo of a home before it was brought to Hessenpark.
Here it is, reconstructed here:
This was a huge hall attached to a lumberyard and sawmill. Wood was stored here to dry.
A long open shed covered lots of old farm equipment. It reminded me again of Dad and Grandpa and all the old farm equipment I grew up around.
Here’s a cute little blacksmith’s shop:
As our day came to an end, we started back to the main town plaza.
Well, that concludes the tour of Hessenpark. I know I will revisit these photos often so I can return here in my mind when I am far away. I hope you’ve enjoyed this look back into time as much as I have!
