The written sources testify that Ošlak's blacksmithery, once home to a small farmer, blacksmith, sawmiller and carpenter near Zreče, was built around 1770. However, the year of construction - 1789 - reigns above the entrance of the ancient home. Ever since then the blacksmithery in the Pohorje forest has been making an impression on the image it has today. In 1997 it was designated a cultural monument.
An interesting fact
The Ošlak's blacksmithery was continuously working until the 1990s. Although blacksmithing is a tradition of the Ošlak family, the family decided not to continue with the craft anymore. Nevertheless, the Dravinja River has been powering the driving wheel for approximately 250 years.
