Premises
Škrabec homestead consists of a house (originally a stretched home), a granary (dated on the transverse beam in 1838 together with the inscription of the owner Anton Shrabdz), a hay-rack and newly built pigsty and barn and has a typical plan like the most Hrovača homesteads. Reconstruction of the homestead took place from 1996 by conservator ethnologist Vito Hazler and architect Božidar Rot and was opened to the public in 2002.
The plaque commemorating the birth of Stanislav Škrabec was built in the street façade in 1920, as well as a relief portrait of Stanislav Škrabec made by France Kralj.
Exhibitions
Furnished in period style, it contains artefacts depicting the history of the house and its inhabitants – the Škrabec family - up to the 20th century. The homestead is also used for the display of specially-commissioned contemporary sculpture works and is used as a venue for many cultural events, literary readings and discussions, which take place in a barn. The awards and scholarships are given in the homestead by the Stanislav Škrabec’s Association yearly. It hosts the Bean Day, when the Hrovača housewives using old recipes prepare the dishes from a specific type of bean, called ribnčan.
The permanent exhibition in the barn presents the inhabitants of Ribniška dolina and theirs relation to wood, wooden products and pottery. Beside traditional pottery and woodenware some kitchen utensils and glass products of Riko Urban Collection are on a display, as to continue a rich trade heritage in a direction of a unique industrial design.
Outside the barn stand sculptures of four Slovene sculptors: Jakov Brdar, Stane Jarm, Matjaž Počivavšek and Mirsad Begić. The interior is completed with works by Janez Boljka and Mirsad Begić as well.
