Archaeology at the Museum

Holiday programme | Cost: 5.00 EUR

How does an archaeological find end up in a museum? This is the theme of the holiday programme at the Salzlandmuseum, where the original artefacts from the excavation at the Pömmelte Ring Sanctuary are on display. During a guided tour led by the museum educator, the children taking part in the holiday programme, their adult companions and anyone else interested will not only gain an insight into the work of an archaeologist, but will even become archaeologists themselves. Armed with a brush and a trowel, they will uncover a treasure.

As is well known, such excavations often unearth skeletons – as was indeed the case on that day. The specially designed skeleton can even dance.
