Austrian Open-Air Museum<br />
in Stübing<br />
Welcome to the valley of farms!<br />
Avalley full of nature – a valley full of history and stories, told by the<br />
approximately one hundred original farm buildings of the Austrian<br />
Open-Air Museum in Stübing bei Graz. These structures, erected in<br />
perfect harmony with the surrounding landscape, tell of farm life over<br />
the past six centuries. Following a burbling brook that flows from<br />
Burgenland to Vorarlberg, you stroll past fascinating farms buildings,<br />
marvelling at Austria’s great variety of rural architecture, at the farm<br />
gardens, animals and fields. Along the way you also watch people<br />
doing traditional chores like making thatched roofs or splitting shingles,<br />
and the craftspeople working here are happy to let you try your<br />
hand at wood-carving, basket-weaving or wool-spinning. A walk<br />
through this “vanished world” is a memorable and relaxing experience,<br />
and the Open-Air Museum also offers a varied programme of events,<br />
exhibitions and guided tours that provide the opportunity to rediscover<br />
old skills and knowledge.<br />

land. It is particularly known for its Blaufränkisch variety, and the central part of Burgenland is<br />
even called “Blaufränkischland”. Wines made from the Blaufränkisch grape have a deep-red<br />
