Discover life at the turn of the previous century

Ethnological Collection Črna na Koroškem

Discover life in the past through a collection of objects, tools, equipment, and photographs that tell the stories of everyday life of the residents of Črna and surrounding farms in past centuries.

Wood carving depicting an idyllic hunting room

 The Ethnological Collection is housed in the former post office building in Črna na Koroškem, bringing visitors closer to the life, work, and living culture of the residents of Črna and surrounding farms in the 19th and first half of the 20th century. The collection comprises approximately 230 objects, including everyday items, pieces of interior furnishings, tools, dishes, and other accessories, complemented by old photographs.  

The collection was first established in 1978 as part of the Tourist Week in Črna, with valuable material acquired by the municipality from collector Miro Prodnik. During the renovated installation in 2000, most of the objects were professionally restored in the restoration workshop of the Koroška Regional Museum. The collection offers insight into the former everyday life and way of living of people in the Upper Mežica Valley.

A wide variety of objects await rediscovery.
