Roznov pod Radhostem - Open - air Wallachian Museum was founded in 1925. Since then it has become an unforgettable site for all visitors coming to the Wallachian region and to its picturesque town Roznov pod Radhostem, which belongs among the significant centeres of Wallachia. In this museum, there are gathered all documents on traditional folk culture, on the way of life, on work and habits and arts of its population - that of the Carpathian region of Moravia and Silesia. The folklore festivals are organized between June and August in the open air theatre of the museum, local Wallachian meals are served and folklore souvenirs are offered. The main goal of the Museum activity is to restore and reconstruct authentically the original environment and setting of a Wallachian village and of a small town, as well as to give a truthful information on them. This aim has led to the building of three basic parts of the Museum, with more than 60 buildings of typical wooden Wallachian architecture: That of the Wooden Townlet, of the Wallachian Village and of the Mill Valley.
The Wooden Townlet shows, how burghers and townspeople lived, their living standards and habitation, how lived their magistrate, the way of life and work of its artisans, craftsmen and tradesmen. On buildings and houses brought here from different parts of the region one can find - in addition to home features - also the Middle European influence of the Rennaissance, Baroque and Empire periods.
The Wallachian Village which has been built since the early sixtieth shows to its visitors the way of life, of housekeeping and farming, of supplementary occupations of a Wallachian village and its inhabitants. One can find here not only houses but also farm and household buildings.
The Mill Valley is a museum area of water driven technical devices and machinery and includes a water mill, a fulling mill, a one blade water sawmill and an oil pressing mill. In operation is also the reconstructed water hammer mill.
