The Wallachian Open-Air Museum in Rožnov pod Radhoštěm is the largest open-air museum in the Czech Republic and one of the oldest of its kind in Europe. Dozens of authentic timber buildings - farmsteads, chapels, mills - were relocated here from the Wallachian countryside and reassembled across a sprawling site. The museum regularly hosts folk festivals, craft fairs and seasonal events throughout the year.
😴 Nothing scheduled here in the near future.
