In front of Museum Give, the allotment garden lies right out by the road as an informal place to pause in the museum’s outdoor area. Here, groups and families can eat, play, or get a bit of fresh air between the exhibitions.
The oldest house dates from 1937 and is described as one of the few allotment houses built in Give. Next to it stands a black wooden house from 2022, and the garden has berry bushes, fruit trees, a sandbox, a fire pit, and an outdoor kitchen.
The classroom at Museum Give shows school life in the early 1900s, when rote learning and keeping quiet in the rows still played a major role. The room is part of the museum’s permanent exhibition about life in the area around Give.
The period was not only about chalk, cramming, and seriousness: around 1900, object-based teaching gained ground, using pictures, objects, and conversation about concrete topics. The classroom therefore stands in the middle of a transition between the old discipline and a school closer to the pupils.
