Program

At the Helme Museum of Domestic Animals, you won't find things that have been misplaced, but memories that have been preserved. The museum collections on the two floors of our building highlight the values, livelihoods and way of life of the parish of Helme. On display are a large number of 19th century tools, including those that helped the Mulk to bring wealth home. On display are photographs of the local area and cultural life. Local handicrafts and Soviet-era artefacts are also on display.

Open on museum night from 18- 23. Admission 1€. (preschool children free of charge).
