About this audio guide
This guide to the Iron Forging Museum in Kropa, a short drive from Lake Bled, follows the Kroparica, the small mountain stream that ran the village's forges for centuries. It takes in the nail smiths who worked by lamplight through the winters, the ironmasters' mansion that now holds their work, and an old March feast tied to the turning of the seasons. Best heard on the square, within earshot of the water.
