The museum consists of five "museum islands" or stations that can be visited on a circular route through Unewatt. This unique setup allows visitors to explore different aspects of the region's history and culture at each station.
The Marxenhaus from Süderbrarup, a significant historical building, was carefully dismantled and rebuilt in Unewatt. It is now part of the museum and offers a glimpse into the architectural style and living conditions of the past.
The Buttermühlengebäude is a reconstructed water mill that stands as a unique example of the early mechanization of agriculture in Angeln. Visitors can learn about the historical processes of butter and cheese production, powered by the water from a nearby pond.
The windmill, built in 1878 and ceased operation in 1967, is another highlight of the museum. After extensive restoration works, it now features a fully installed "mechanical interior", offering visitors a chance to understand the workings of a traditional windmill.
