                  <text>The inhabitants of Kurzeme used to combine a cattle shed, livestock, feeding shed, cart-house and servant’s barn under the same roof. In the 19th century this farm had 5 horses, 12 cows, 20 sheep and 6 pigs.&#13;
At present, a working cart, two-wheel cart, sleds and sleighs employed by Kurzeme inhabitants may be viewed in a cart-house.&#13;
Massive fence from a tree trunk closes the entrance of the cattle yard, separates from the rest of the buildings and makes a courtyard, in which the stock was held during warm summer nights.&#13;
Cattle yard’s place of origin is Rucava, “Vecķērves”; and it was built in ~ 1850. Re-erected in the museum in 2004.&#13;

Fotogrāfijas, apraksti, un rezultāti no aptaujām un intervijām ar muzeja pārstāvjiem un apmeklētājiem, kuri tika apkopoti Etnogrāfiskajā Brīvdabas Muzejā Latvijā. Šī virtuālā ekspozīcija tiek piedāvāta Angļu un Latviešu valodās.&#13;
Lēmumu par Brīvdabas muzeja dibināšanu pieņēma 1924. gadā, bet 1932. gadā apmeklētājiem tika atvērta pirmā brīvdabas ekspozīcija Baltijā - Vidzemes sēta. Patlaban muzejs aizņem 87ha lielu platību priežu mežā Juglas ezera krastā. Uz muzeju pārvestas, uzstādītas un iekārtotas 118 senas celtnes no visiem vēsturiskajiem Latvijas novadiem – Kurzemes, Vidzemes, Zemgales un Latgales no 17. gadsimta beigām līdz 20. gadsimta 30. gadu otrajai pusei. &#13;
Muzejā izveidotas latviešu zemnieku, amatnieku un zvejnieku sētas. Visās apskatāma pastāvīgā ekspozīcija – sadzīves un darba priekšmeti, interjera iekārtojums, kas raksturo laika posmu, novadu un mājas saimnieku nodarbošanos. Apmeklētāji var iepazīties ar Kurzemē dzīvojošo lībiešu zvejnieku, Latgales krievu vecticībnieku saimniecībām. &#13;
Muzejā strādā amatnieki, svin latviešu gadskārtu ieražu svētkus, izstāžu zālē var skatīt tautas lietišķās mākslas studiju un muzeja krājuma materiālu izstādes.</text>
