Traditional Handicrafts -Tara Citizens Association
From sewing to weaving, experience the heritage of crafting in the village of Licko Petrovo Selo right next to the Plitvice Lakes National Park and learn something new about local handicraft tradition. The best place to learn and experience old traditional methods is in the authentic rural setting where these skills have been handed down from generation to generation. Use this opportunity to learn a bit more about the unique wooly men's underwear, its health benefits and unusual appearance which did not diminish the protective effectiveness of the laundry during the harsh Lika winters. Today, this handicraft can serve as a special and wacky gift that you can also order via the contacts listed below.
Support local guardians of history, brave individuals who take it upon themselves to preserve important part of local cultural heritage.
Bbe sure to plan and arrange all details ahead:
- check the current terms;
- make contact at least 7 days before the desired arrival because the number of visitors per group is often limited.
Arrange a demonstration or a small handicraft workshop:
