Probstei - Museum in Schonberg - A must see!

This is the front of the Museum. The literature i found said that it is open May 13th thru October 31 from 2pm to 5pm Tuesday thru Sunday. We went out to SchonBerger Strand (beach) and had lunch while we waited for it to open. I think it was 2 Euros per person for admission. This is the traditional "Bauernhof " which means barn house.
