A special highlight was the construction of a historical fence, where participants debarked thin tree poles and split wooden stakes to then assemble them into a fence structure without nails. This traditional construction method required craftsmanship, precision, and teamwork.

A valuable contribution to the preservation of old cultivated plants was made by the two departments that created an ancient grain field on a meadow area next to the charming museum chapel and sowed flax on it. Fibers for fabric production are to be obtained from this. On a second area above the chapel hill, they also planted potatoes and sowed carrots, beans, radishes, and beets.

In addition to the craftsmanship activities, there was of course also the opportunity for exchange and shared experiences. Part of each activity was a museum tour. During this, participants gained insight into the life and working methods of past times, deepening their understanding of the historical context of the work carried out.

These team activities are a great example of how community engagement and environmental efforts can go hand in hand. The successful collaboration with the Markus Wasmeier Open-Air Museum shows that sustainable projects and teamwork are an enriching combination.

A heartfelt thank you to all the dedicated helpers as well as Markus Wasmeier and his friendly museum team – without you, this action would not have been possible. We are already looking forward to the next team activities at Schliersee and many more enriching projects.
