History
Two-storey late Baroque building has three entrances and presents one of the earliest examples of workers' multi residential housing in the inner Austrian territory. Together with other objects at Stara Sava it forms rounded up entirety of Bucelleni Ruard Manor, first established in 16th century.
In Stara Sava one can see also Bucelleni Ruard Manor house (see Iron-making, Mining and Palaeontologic Collection in Bucellini-Ruard Mansion, Jesenice), remnants of blast furnace and puddling mill, little ironworks’ church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary and Roch, chimney, mill, and part of the concrete water trough. The complex is protected as a technical monument.
Collections
A family had a right to live in the Kasarna if one of its members was employed in the iron forge. On average 15 families lived in the building, sharing the kitchen, toilets, entrance hall, woodshed and other common places. The kitchen and a room of the workers' dwelling authentically document life in the 1930s and 1940s with the use of characteristic wooden furniture with ornaments in the bedroom and period kitchen equipment including a built-in wall range, grid iron, coffee grinding-mill and other implements which reflect the life of an iron-workers' family.
The building houses also a small photo gallery, the historic archives of the KID (Kranjska Industrial Society), the Jesenice Music School, a place for temporary exhibitions and various performances: workshops, summer nights, movie, theatre and music shows,…
