History Park Bärnau-Tachov

Highlight • Historical Site

With around 30 reconstructed buildings from the Middle Ages, the historical park is the largest museum of its kind in the German-speaking world. In three settlement groups, for example, a Slavic nave, a tower hill castle with associated residential and auxiliary buildings and a large inn from the 9th - 13th century AD can be visited. The history park thus shows the historical development of a region that is shaped by the merging of the Bavarian population with the Slavic settlers.
Especially at the events, performers convey a vivid impression of everyday life at that time. History is within reach - in the truest sense of the word.

Liebenstein Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

Beautifully landscaped reservoir, an approximately 6km long circular path leads around the flood reservoir. The reservoir is used for flood protection and energy generation; many sections of the circular route offer a beautiful view of the lake and you can still experience pure nature here.

German Button Museum Bärnau

Highlight • Monument

The German Button Museum was opened in 1975 and has been located in the former municipal brewery in Bärnau since 1998. The history of the button industry in Bärnau begins in 1895, when Johann Müller founded the first mother-of-pearl button factory. In the heyday of the Bärnau button industry, a total of 32 companies were active and at that time formed the livelihood of the entire region.
In the museum you can admire buttons from four centuries and 26 different materials, machines and devices from earlier button-making methods, tapestries with hundreds of buttons, the largest and smallest mother-of-pearl button in the world and the pair of buttons whose clothing consists of over 18,500 buttons.
