Beautifully maintained and thoughtfully interpreted by the owners (who live upstairs), this house-museum re-creates a well-to-do villager's dwelling from the first half of the 20th century. Much of the interior decor – including furniture, tiles, bedspreads, fireplaces and everyday household items – is original to the house, while bilingual information panels, photos, tools and model animals illustrate the lifestyle of the time.
