Museum of Blacksmiths and Locksmiths in Hajnówka - become a blacksmith of your horseshoe

The Blacksmiths 'and Locksmiths' Museum in Hajnówka invites everyone - adults and children to blacksmith workshops. The museum is the only place in the region where you will learn the technique of a blacksmith's trade and you will be able to try to forge a horseshoe yourself. The collected exhibits, coming mainly from the family collection, reflect the spirit of the past centuries. A visit to the Museum is also an excellent lesson in craft history - there are blacksmith tools and products, artistic blacksmith's products, and in the back of the old forge there is a miniature settlement of the ancient metallurgy, where you can learn about the process of iron smelting. A family forge run by a friendly host is a place that you simply have to visit. The guest book kept by the museum owner creates a peculiar map of not only Poland but also the world. Horseshoes carved in the museum of Mr. Mierzwiński bring luck to owners from Finland, the USA and even far Africa. Museum of Blacksmiths and Locksmiths in Hajnówka - an unusual history lesson embellished with a hint of humor from the friendly host.
