Museum of Orava Village Zuberec

This open-air museum is situated at the foot of Rohace in the West Tatra mountains. The first building of the museum - a forest house with a restaurant from Zakamenne was built in 1970. The building burnt down in 1990. It was rebuilt in 1998 and opened again. Museum was first opened in 1975. You can find here agricultural and ordinary buildings (houses, agricultural buildings, larders, haylofts, a chalet and others) sacral buildings (a wooden church, churchyard, belfries) and the Orava craftsmen's buildings (a craftsman's house, a mill and a sawmill, a smithery, and others).
The museum is in fact a small village with a wooden church, a churchyard and where there are also seasonal buildings.
The museum is divided into five thematically based parts. The first part represents the Lower Orava region. The part near a stream contains a watermill, a sawmill and a building for producing fabric. Zamagurská street shows the characteristic structure of the Orava village. Highlanders' villages represent the poorest part of Orava situated in the south-east of the Orava Mountains. The dominant part of the museum is the churchyard and the late gothic wooden church from Zabrez from the 15th century.
