Located within Kozjansko Park, some 3 kilometres from Podsreda the birthplace of Tito's mother Marija Broz, born Javeršek, is a well preserved peasant house, locals call it Pri Lapu. It is situated on a lonesome place and parts of a museum homestead are »hiša« (a living room), »kamra« (a bedroom) and »črna kuhinja«, open fireplace kitchen. That is where Josip Broz Tito former Yugoslav president, spent some time of his childhood. Homestead is revealing besides the authentic furniture, also the level of material culture of the period. The spatial arrangement of the rooms indicates a typical peasant home on Slovene farms of the 19th century. The museum part of the homestead was arranged in 1979. The farm is still run by the Javeršek family.
