History
A rare working replica of the traditional wooden floating grain mills that once lined the Mura river — up to 90 mills operated on this stretch as late as 1900. The nearby ethno-village complex is a gentle, family-friendly slice of old Međimurje.
“In the 19th century the Mura had one of the highest densities of water mills in Europe — much of northern Croatia's flour was ground on this single river.”
