Bad Sachsa museum wooden artifact displays

Overview

The Wintersport- und Heimatmuseum Bad Sachsa displays various historical wooden artifacts produced by the Schwäbe workshop.

Exhibits include a ‘Viertel-Metze’ or ‘Viertel-Merze’, a cylindrical wooden hollow measure used for measuring bulk agricultural goods like grain and flour. This vessel, likely crafted in the late 19th or early 20th century, features wooden staves held by iron bands and a built-in carrying handle.

Additionally, the museum features two pig-shaped wooden breakfast or cutting boards representing a sow and a boar. These decorative items, which reflect mid-20th-century dining culture, show visible signs of use from domestic life.
