Stock Photo - 08 April 2019, Brandenburg, Altranft: Altranft Castle, which belongs to the Oderbruch Museum Altranft (OMA). The Oderbruch is now a programme in the Altranft Museum. That's why the makers call it OMA self-confident. The facility is currently being redesigned until 2020. This year the focus is on the building culture in Germany's largest dyked river polder. Those who drive through the Oderbruch will inevitably notice the Loose farmsteads: Individually standing farms, which rise like islands from wide fields. The view follows lonely country lanes to fascinating solitude between the villages. On closer inspection, however, it becomes clear that only a few of these farmsteads are still inhabited. Many stand empty, are already ruins or can only be located using old groups of trees. Photo: Patrick Pleul/dpa-Zentralbild/ZB. - Altranft/Brandenburg/Germany
