Viktors Ķirps Ate Museum "Vidzeme country farm"
Close to the border of Alūksne and Gulbene regions, enclosed by the splash of Otte mill waters, there is a rich Vidzeme farmhouse – Viktors Ķirps Ate museum, where you can see agricultural machinery, harness, saddles and other things for horses, several internal combustion engines, tools of craftsmen and farmers. The exposition contains more than 6500 items housed in an ancient Latvian farmstead with 13 different buildings; 12 buildings are open for visitors.
Traditionally, every year on the second Saturday of September, the museum hosts the biggest event of the year – the Harvest Festival, which brings together demonstrators of ancient work skills, craftsmen and farms.
