Starting from the complex migration history of the Volhynian Germans, we offer educational activities for children, young people and adults.

At the end of an unprecedented odyssey, German refugees from the historic region of Volhynia—in what is now western Ukraine—found themselves in Mecklenburg by the end of World War II. Benefiting from land reform, they began settling the former Linstow estate in 1945 and continue to shape the character of the village to this day.

The Volhynian Resettlers Museum is participating on the national Open Monument Day again this year. The museum is open from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. In addition to guided tours, our guests can look forward to a reading by author Mariana Hrytsuniak, which begins at 3:00 p.m.

Have you ever heard about Volhynia? Delve into the history of this little-known region and its inhabitants in what is now northwestern Ukraine. Two world wars and the resulting displacements put an end to the peaceful coexistence of people from different nations.
