Little Wooden Town
Little Wooden Town is the oldest part of the Wallachian Open Air Museum. It is set in the flat terrain of a town park. It opened to the public in 1925 and has been gradually developing ever since. It shows visitors the appearance of a historical square formed of a group of original wooden buildings relocated largely from the square in Rožnov pod Radhoštěm and the surrounding area. A number of timbered buildings were built here as copies of existing buildings and buildings that are no longer standing. Little Wooden Town lets you take a look at the way of life in a small town from the middle of the 19th century to the first quarter of the 20th century.
