Plunging into the washing day of the past

At Spotless Clean – The Big Washing Day, children experience a vibrant glimpse into family life 100 years ago. On August 19, 2026, the Bamberger Land Farm Museum in Frensdorf will become a learning place full of movement, wonder and shared time. For children aged 6 to 12 years, a world opens up where laundry was still real heavy work.

Historical family experience to participate in

Instead of pushing buttons and using washing machines, here there are wash tubs, pure soap, water buckets and strong arms. The children sort laundry, help with boiling, tumble and mop, and experience firsthand how strenuous household work was in the past. This makes history tangible and unknowingly promotes understanding of everyday life, work and the value of clothing.

Learning with all senses

This holiday offer combines museum education with real spirit of discovery. Children learn in an age-appropriate way how work was done together in the past, why carrying water was laborious, and how much time a simple laundry load required. This naturally fosters curiosity, team spirit, and fun in learning.

Well prepared for little helpers

The event is aimed at 6 to 12-year-olds who want to participate in a small group. Each child should please bring a wash item that can be boiled, such as a dish towel or small hand towel. A drink and, if needed, a snack are also suitable. This way, there is enough energy for the active washing day.
