Škratelj House

The architecture of Škratelj House and its courtyard (borjač), a monument of 17th-century Karst architecture, is well preserved. A bust of Ita Rina by student Maja Babič Košir was unveiled in the courtyard in July 2000 following a student sculpture competition organised by the Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Ljubljana. The exhibition on the first floor presents the life of Ita Rina and the development of Slovene film during her day.
