Outside the museum stands a old grape press. The mechanical parts are a little bit rusty but the rest of the press is in a good condition.

The Town Hall is a two-axle building with strong stands on the upper floor and three "wild man" in the gable.
It has several bent wood with buds. The side front is simply designed, with straight timbers and wide weather roof that rests on heavy long timber and is supported by strong strut woods."
