The Local History Museum in Usseln provides an overview of the way of life, history, and culture of the Waldecker Uplands. The focus is on people and their lives. However, the nature and landscape of what is now the Diemelsee Nature Park are also highlighted.
Experience the transformation of a once-poor region into today’s tourism hub of the Waldecker Upland and the Hochsauerland.
Let yourself be surprised and inspired. Young and old are warmly welcome.
The Usseln Local History Museum opened in 1982. The museum building and its grounds were thoroughly renovated, improved, and expanded in 1992–1993 by the municipality of Willingen (Upland) as part of the Hessian Village Renewal Program.
Numerous exhibits are displayed across an exhibition area of over 250 m², vividly depicting life in the past, the hard work, and the daily habits of the people. The modesty and poverty of the past are brought to life.
