Open-air museum & arcaded wine tavern

In the Dazumal open-air museum in Bad Tatzmannsdorf , buildings that were no longer needed as a result of changes in the way of life and the economy in the southern Burgenland region and were therefore threatened with decay or demolition at their original location have been preserved for posterity. In the sense of a holistic way of presentation, the former way of life and economy is now illustrated by appropriately furnishing the rooms with household goods and equipment.

The economic changes that began in southern Burgenland in the 1950s - increasing mechanization with a simultaneous decline in agricultural holdings - fundamentally changed agricultural structures and thus the landscape. Typical wooden buildings, often still thatched with straw and by now no longer functional, disappeared from the landscape as a result of conversions and new buildings.
