Museum-Forge "Hamora"

Architecture , Museum / gallery

The working forge-museum "Hamora" is a unique monument of the blacksmith's craft.

It was built in Lysychovo at the beginning of the 19th century, when a dam was built on the Lysychanka River. The water was directed through the water channel on the blades of the wheels, which set in motion heavy blacksmith's hammers weighing up to 125 kilograms. Under their blows, metal blanks turned into blanks for agricultural tools: shovels, hoes, plow parts, etc. Four hammers were serviced by 16 craftsmen. At the beginning of the 20th century, there were 5 water wheels with a capacity of 8 horsepower each.

The forge operated until 1998, when the dam was destroyed by a flood. Soon it was reconstructed and turned into a museum. Four blacksmiths are constantly working here, and they are still making various tools for the villagers.

Free entrance. Excursions are held by prior arrangement.
