PR PETROVC
The Petrovec house, known as Pr Petrovc, was a smaller wooden farmers' house until the middle of the 18th century. This was an era, when old wooden and semi - wooden houses were disappearing in Gorenjska region, with the wooden construction only maintained by minor farmers and cottars. That was when Petrovec house was upgraded into a mighty brick house with a rich frontage and frescoes. Located on Krvavška cesta 1B, Cerklje.
The house became a telling witness of the way of life and thinking of the more affluent farmers. It expressed a native confidence and significant assets of its owners.
In the middle of the 19th century, the house gained the appearance it has today, documented by the year 1863, carved above the portal. That is also when its owners began to run a guesthouse.
Pr Petrovc houses the Tourist Information Centre Cerklje and a library, you can see a museum (currently closed) with archaeological and ethnological collection and numerous exhibitions in the house gallery.
It is also accessible for disabeled people, as there is an elevator in the house.
