    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Built in 1704-1705 in the former Renda parish of the district of Kuldīga near Usmas Lake as a branch of the Renda Lutheran parish. Re-erected in the museum in 1935.<br />
On Sunday divine service and ceremonies such as christening, confirmation and marriage took place in the church. Corvée and impost, as well as fines for disobedience were also announced in the church.<br />
The interior of the church consists of six areas – nave, three vestries for clergymen and the participants of the ceremonies, anteroom, and an open porch, which serves as a bell tower. The interior design, wooden ornamentation and plafond are the specimens of the 18th century art - they represent the peasant baroque style.<br />
The building continues to serve its primary function at the museum 300 years after it was built. At present the church is operated by the Lutheran congregation of Bergi.<br />
<br />
Celta 1704.-1705. gadā bijušā Kuldīgas apriņķa Rendas pagastā Usmas ezera krastā kā Rendas luterāņu draudzes filiālbaznīca. Muzejā kopš 1935. gada.<br />
Svetdienās baznīcā notika dievkalpojumi un dažādas baznīcas ceremonijas – kristības, iesvētības, laulības u.c. Šeit zemniekiem paziņoja klaušanas, nodevas un par pārkāpumiem piespiestos sodus.<br />
Ēkā sešas telpas: lūgšanu telpa ar balkonu (luktām), mācītāja ģērbkambaris altāra galā, divi ģērbkambari kāznieku un kristībnieku vajadzībām pie baznīcas ieejas, priekšnams un vaļējs lievenis, kura konstrukcija kalpo arī zvana iekāršanai. Baznīcas iekārtojums, kokgriezumi un griestu gleznojumi ir 18. gadsimta mākslas paraugi - tie raksturo zemnieku baroka stilu.<br />
Šobrīd baznīcā darbojas Berģu luterāņu draudze.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Farmsteads in the area of South Kurzeme are characterised by two courtyards: in the middle – a residential house, opposite of which – a cattle feedlot, between both buildings – a work or dirty yard. <br />
Between the dwelling house and adjacently built barn – a clean yard full of bright flowers and shrubs. Not very fire-prone bathhouse is located at a distance. Several dozen hectares of land belonged to the farmstead.<br />

Dienvidkurzemes sētām raksturīgi divi pagalmi: vidū dzīvojamā māja, tai iepretim lopu laidars, starp abām ēkām darba jeb netīrais pgalms.<br />
Starp dzīvojamo māju un tai līdzās celto klēti – tīrais pagalms ar košuma krūmiem un puķēm. Ugunsnedrošā pirts novietota tālāk. Sētai piederēja vairāki desmiti ha zemes.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[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.<br />
At present, a working cart, two-wheel cart, sleds and sleighs employed by Kurzeme inhabitants may be viewed in a cart-house.<br />
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.<br />
Cattle yard’s place of origin is Rucava, “Vecķērves”; and it was built in ~ 1850. Re-erected in the museum in 2004.<br />
<br />
Kurzemnieki zem viena jumta mēdza apvienot kūtis visiem lopiem, šķūņus lopu barībai, ratnīcu, pelavnieku un kalpu klētis. 19.gs. sētā bija 5 zirgi, 12 liellopi, 20 aitas un 6 cūkas.<br />
Patlaban ratnīcā var apskatīt kurzemnieku darba ratus, divričus, ragavas un kamanas. <br />
Masīvs guļkoku – saukts bulverķa – žogs noslēdz laidara pakavu, atdala no pārējām sētas ēkām un veido pagalmu, kurā lopus turēja siltajās vasaras naktīs.<br />

In the centre of the house there is a walk-through room with a wrapper smokestack, a heated room for a host family on one side, unheated chamber for living in summer on another side, and the pantry-milling room.<br />
In the 19th century the host family, one of two service families and unmarried single workers lived here – in total 15-20 people of different ages. <br />

In a grain granary there were storage containers for cereals, meat, honey, fat and other products, which were stored in jars and vats.<br />
Clothing, fabric, canvas, cloth and yarns were stored in chests and cabinets of the clothes storage. In summer it also served for living.<br />
When this granary was demolished, in its corners there were rowan cross and Swedish coin from 1730 1st era that was hacked into four pieces. People believed that dark spirits and thieves are afraid of the tree of light – the sign of rowan and juniper cross. The crosses drawn with the blood of rooster on the door were also believed to protect the building from the fire and envious eye.<br />
Granary’s place of origin is Kuldīga, “Dižlīķi”; and it was built in ~ 1767. Re-erected in the museum in 1932.<br />

Cilvēki ticēja, ka tumsas gari un zagļi baidās no gaismas koku – pīlādža un kadiķa “krusta” zīmes (kadiķam sērmokšļam krustiņš ogu galiņā). Arī uz durvīm ar gaiļa asinīm uzvilktajiem krustiem vajadzēja pasargāt ēku no ugunsgrēka un skauģa acs.<br />
