Groß Schacksdorfer Heimatstuben / Tśěšojske domowniske śpy

The Heimatstube, a two-storey brick building, is located in the rooms of the school building inaugurated in 1907.In 1994, the municipality made several rooms available to the association for the establishment of a Heimatstube.

The presentation is essentially divided into three thematic areas:

• Representation of the culture and way of life of the village population from the 19th to the 20th century
• The development of the village under the influence of military airfield use
• The school history in Groß Schacksdorf

The name Thumann is closely associated with the school history of the 19th century. The son of the first seminary-trained village teacher was probably the most famous son of the village, Professor Friedrich Paul Thumann. Born in 1834 in Groß-Tzschacksdorf and deceased in 1908 in Berlin, he was one of the most popular painters of his time and was himself a teacher in the village for several years.
Other local personalities were Christoph Gabriel Fabricius (1684 to 1757), author of Sorbian theological treatises, and Paul Vogel, who wrote a textbook on the practice of pond management, land lake and stream fishing and lived in the castle from 1920 to the early 1930s.

Special exhibitions in the classical sense do not take place, but once a year there is an exhibition outside the house on the occasion of the village festival in the sportsmen's home.

• Thematic tours for school classes and travel groups
• by appointment: themed or seasonal handicrafts with children
