Rogatec Open

TIME : 2016/2/19 1:07:19

Slovenia’s largest and most ambitious skanzen (open-air village museum), with more than a dozen mostly original structures, moved here in the early 1980s. The central farmhouse, built by the Šmit family in the early 19th century, barn, a toplar (double hayrack), forge, grocery shop and vintner’s cottage replicate a typical Styrian hamlet of the 19th and early 20th centuries. There are regular displays (including participation) of activities such as weaving, stone-cutting, bread-making and so on.
