At Schwerkolt Cottage, water was drawn from the well, heated up with a fire and then all the clothes and linen were washed by hand! See the washing tubs, rubbing boards, mangles and early washing machines inside Schwerkolt Museum and learn how Monday was washing day.
Complete your washing day activity sheet and decorate your wooden clothes peg. You can hang up your finished piece in the Museum or take it home with you.
