About This Museum
Tucked away in the charming village of Dobrovnik, the House of Crafts is far more than a static museum; it's a living, breathing tribute to the hands that built this region. You can almost hear the faint echo of a hammer on an anvil and smell the freshly carved wood as you wander through. It’s a place that doesn't just show you history, but lets you feel its texture and understand its weight. I left feeling a profound connection to the generations of artisans whose skills are so beautifully honored here.
Collection Highlights
The blacksmith's forge looks ready to roar back to life at any moment, complete with original tools laid out as if the smith just stepped away. Another room showcases intricate lace-making, with delicate bobbins and stunning examples of work that demand you lean in close to truly appreciate. Don't miss the wooden barrels in the cooper's workshop—a testament to a craft that was essential for everyday life.
