washing machine

So where and what is this place? Is there a web link to this open air museum? 6 months worth of clothes? Somehow I doubt that considering that most people didn't own a lot of clothes until relatively recently. So was this an industrial installation to dye and wash fabrics?

@bannol1 No, as it says in the description it was a communal place to wash clothes, not to dye, but to wash clothing and linen for working, farming families. Think about the size of families a few centuries ago and you might get a picture for how much clothes, linens and other things people had.

Googling the museum took about 2 seconds, you might want to try that. ;)

I agree with Hindsight... Can't you edit this to make it right side up? I've never seen anything like this. It's pretty interesting.

wish you wouldn't have filmed it sidways. That is pretty annoying. Otherwise, cool.
