About This Museum

People come here not for grand halls but to feel the heat of a real, working forge and to meet a family whose hands have shaped iron and wood for generations. You can almost hear the rhythmic clang of the blacksmith's hammer and smell the old wood in the wheelwright's workshop. It’s one of those places where history isn't just behind glass—it’s alive and sparking right in front of you. The passion of the Horvat family is utterly contagious, making you appreciate the incredible skill that built everyday life.

Collection Highlights

The heart of the place is the functional forge where they do live demonstrations. You'll also find beautifully preserved horse-drawn carriages and all the traditional tools of both the blacksmith and wheelwright trades laid out just as they were used.

Visitor Information

It's in a small village called Razkrižje, so having your own transport is key. Definitely check ahead for their demo times, as seeing the blacksmith at work is the whole point!

Architecture & Building

It feels like you're walking right into a family's historic homestead and workshops, not a purpose-built museum.
