History
Kajžnik house is named Kajžnk in a local pronunciation. It was adapted several times, in 19th, 20th century and lately after the fire in 1995–2004, when it was purchased and renovated by the Kranjska Gora Municipality. The two-storey masonry building with wooden corridor at the gable and a typical ground floor plan (room [hiša] with closet [kamra], entrance hall with black kitchen [črna kuhinja], and granary [kašča]) represents a well preserved example of vernacular architecture and was long a home of a typical middle-class farming family. Notable façade elements are also a stonework entry portal, frescoes of Saint Florian and a sundial.
Collections
The ethnological collection consists of 400 objects of folk customs, dresses and other handicrafts' items of the Rateče area. On the ground floor is a reconstruction of black kitchen and pantry, furnished with authentic period furniture, tools and other equipments. On the first floor there is a multi purpose room with a tourist-information corner, where different workshops, meetings, and temporary exhibitions take place. The smaller room houses a historical outline of Rateče. In the attic is an ethnological archive, including a rare 80-year-old film recording of village life, and a computer experience of Planica ski jumps.
The building is one of the spots of the Potato Festival in Rateče organised by the Society for the Recognition of Roasted Potatoes as a Separate Dish since 2000.
