In a pretty setting southeast of Kihelkonna, this early-18th-century farm has been preserved in its entirety, complete with thatched-roof wooden farmhouses, a sauna, a windmill and a traditional village swing. Six generations of one farming family have lived here, and made almost everything you can see.
