A permanent exhibition is located in the old schoolhouse, demonstrating an old farmyard, a kiln-drying room, a farm living-room, flax processing and a rich display of ethnographic textiles (over 400 items). Farm tools and furniture made by several generations introduce Estonian “wooden age” in the Hanila and Karuse rural municipalities. You can grind with a quern or push a swing, rest on logs under old trees, listen to the nightingale in spring or see the bats flying when the night falls. Concerts are organised in the yard or hall of the museum. Museum hikes are organised for children.
