The Centre for Experimental Archaeology and Living History was created in late 2006 in an effort to combine a living history and experimental archaeology. The CEA deals mainly with the period of Great Moravia. Attention goes to authenticity in presenting everyday lives of ordinary people, craftsmen and farmers, but also the nobility and clergy.

Between the Black Forest and Kaiserstuhl, conveniently located just outside Freiburg, lies the community Vörstetten. In an open-air museum on the northern outskirts of the idyllic half-timbered village, young and old can go on a journey back in time to late antiquity - more precisely in the 4th and 5th century AD.

Hornbore by (Hornbore Village) was founded in 1997 and consists of a historically inspired visitor centre with reconstructed Viking houses as an attempt to recreate a smaller trading site from the Viking Age. Although a trading area has not been found here (yet), the geographic location is perfect for it, the water and a cemetery of the period nearby.

The Piast royal dynasty was the first historical ruling dynasty of Poland between the 10th century and 1370. The stronghold Ostrów Lednicki on an island in Lake Lednica is thought to be one of the seats of the first Piast kings. You could say, Polands origins are here.

In 1990, the middle point of Germany was being calculated – it happened to be in the area of three municipalities: Oberdorla, Niederdorla and Langula. This sounded like a good occasion to attract tourists.
