Overview:  
 
Abstract: The Museumsdorf Niedersulz is the largest open-air museum of Lower Austria, which represents the village life in the Weinviertel. The folkloristic collection of the museum also includes a textile collection. It is currently stored in the historic houses under poor environmental conditions. In the future, the textile collection should be housed in new rooms according to conservation standards, considering the spatial, personnel and financial conditions. The focus of this work is the planning of the textile storage. In addition to the room and storage technology, sample packaging will be created for the storage of the textiles, which will later be transferable to the whole collection. In addition, the work deals with the inventory, pest treatment and cleaning of the textiles. For the long-term preservation of the textile stock, an IPM concept is presented and a risk analysis of the new storage rooms is carried out.
