This ethnological exhibition is presented in a Venetian-Gothic building, erected in the 14th century close to Koper town walls and reconstructed in 1983. Interesting elements of the building are the corbelled balcony that rests on carved wooden supports and the rich Gothic two-light, three-foiled window divided by a slender pillar. Inside the building is a presentation of the material and spiritual culture of Slovene Istria, the Brkini, Čičarija and the Upper Karst from the 17th century onwards, with special emphasis on the masonry elements of the cultivated landscape: the formation of settlements, the region's specific architecture, the use of stone objects in homes and at work, artistically wrought architectural details, free-standing sculptures, and masonry workshops. A special place is occupied by a typical Mediterranean burger kitchen. The interior courtyard presents stone objects made of flysch and limestone, and the blacksmith's and wheelwright's crafts are displayed in the shed. | This ethnological exhibition is presented in a Venetian-Gothic building, erected in the 14th century close to Koper town walls and reconstructed in 1983.
