France Bevk Homestead, the attic in which Slovene writer France Bevk (1890–1970) wrote his first book as a 12-year-old boy, transformed into an exhibition room displaying documentation relating to the writer's life and work
Famous Slovene writer, publicist, political and cultural worker France Bevk (1890–1970) was born at the Volar homestead in the village of Zakojca. He spent his childhood and early youth living on a slope of the Kojca mountain, above the Baška Valley.
The France Bevk homestead was opened to visitors in 1990 on the 100th anniversary of the writer's birth. It was established by the Idrija Municipal Museum which also houses France Bevk's Memorial Room, donated by his wife and transferred from Ljubljana to Idrija in 1971. His homestead in Zakojca is nevertheless managed by the Cerkno Museum.
