Step into a beautifully preserved traditional Croatian house, where you’ll be welcomed by dancers dressed in authentic Croatian folk costumes, representing different regions of the country. This hands-on workshop lets you experience Croatia’s rich cultural heritage through traditional crafts.
First, create and decorate your own Licitar heart, a beloved Croatian symbol recognized by UNESCO. Then, paint a traditional Croatian wooden toy, inspired by age-old craftsmanship from the Zagorje region. Both handmade items are yours to keep as unique souvenirs.
After the workshop, embark on a guided tour of the house, where you’ll delve into Croatian geography, history, cuisine, and ethnology. To complete the experience, homemade Croatian cakes and authentic Rakija (fruit brandy) will be served.
