And indeed, anyone who enters the site through the entrance gate is immersed in another world. Bedouin tents, grain stones and mills, very special camels... the guest is already inside the world and environment of the Bible. Out of the present and into history - afterwards you will perceive our time of the 21st century differently. With great attention to detail, huts and houses have been created in the Bible Village to take guests into this strange, past, but not forgotten world. The Bible Village is home to the largest European topographical model of Israel and Palestine and a 110 square meter archaeological excavation area makes many a child's dream come true. The educational motto is: from grasping to grasping. And it works. Step into the world of the past!"

The Bible Village in Rietberg is a unique project in Germany. The educational learning site with its open-air museum brings everyday life at the time of the Bible to life.

 In 2003, an oriental-looking village was created on the Ems. Since then, the Bible village, which is unique in Germany, has been growing. And indeed, anyone who enters the site through the entrance gate is immersed in another world. Bedouin tents, grain stones and mills, very special camels... the guest is already inside the world and environment of the Bible. Out of the present and into history - afterwards you will perceive our time of the 21st century differently. With great attention to detail, huts and houses have been created in the Bible Village to take guests into this strange, past, but not forgotten world. The Bible Village is home to the largest European topographical model of Israel and Palestine and a 110 square meter archaeological excavation area makes many a child's dream come true. The educational motto is: from grasping to grasping. And it works. Step into the world of the past!
