for school groups is adjusted to the age of children. Through active participation, pupils strengthen their knowledge about tree species, get to know forests in Slovenia and around the world, their significance, different types of wood, etc.
Then, they walk through the past. They familiarise themselves with the work of former woodcutters, horse and cart drivers, sawyers and rafters, get to know old methods of felling, harvesting, sawing and transport of wood to distant places. The work of carpenters, joiners and wheelwrights is also presented. Using models and layouts in natural size, we bring the past closer to pupils in an interesting and informative way.
By prior arrangement, visits are also possible outside opening hours.
