The first farmers – Neolithic in Lower Saxony

tour + workshop (optional)

We find the oldest traces of farming settlements on the fertile loess soils of southern Lower Saxony. Large houses with deeply buried posts, large earthworks near the settlements, remains of domestic animals and storage pits with crops illustrate the life of the early farmers in Lower Saxony. Community achievements such as the megalithic tombs that still exist in the landscape make organization and religious ideas clear.

In order to deepen the topic, one of the following workshops, thematically appropriate to the tour, can be booked:

  • Grind grain and bake farmer's flatbreads
  • Make pots out of clay

Tour: 60 minutes | Workshop: 60 minutes Guided tour: 40 € | Workshop: 40 € Sec I 5th grade in class
