OPEN-AIR MUSEUMS

Open-air museums form a cornerstone of the EXARC network. As living laboratories for experimental archaeology, they provide unique environments where research, reconstruction, and public interpretation come together.

Through full-scale reconstructions, hands-on experimentation, and immersive educational programs, open-air museums allow both researchers and visitors to explore past technologies, daily life, and craftsmanship in meaningful and engaging ways.

Their close connection between academic research and public outreach makes open-air museums essential partners in preserving, testing, and communicating archaeological knowledge.
