About the museum
Schwabendorf near Rauschenberg was founded at the end of the 17th century by French religious refugees – Huguenots and Waldensians – on barren pastureland. The village museum in the Daniel-Martin-Haus on the Winterseite tells of their origins in France, their flight and the development of the village.
In the farmhouse kitchen and living room, the everyday life of earlier generations can be experienced. In the house and the adjoining barn, workshops of the stocking weaver, weaver, carpenter, shoemaker and broom maker are set up with their tools. The museum is run on a voluntary basis by the local working group for Huguenot and Waldensian history; it is also a stop on the Huguenot and Waldensian Trail, a European cultural route.
