The project deals with the second stage of the conversion of the former ceramics factory in Kravsko. It is the original utilitarian plaster mold warehouse, which we are transforming into accommodation, and the former sorting plant, which we are converting into a community hall. The original Baroque complex was built as an inn on the Prague-Vienna route. In the second half of the 19th century, it was transformed into a famous ceramics factory and expanded with new buildings. The production operated here for a hundred years. Soon, however, it met the fate of many other obsolete industrial plants – production was closed down, the area changed hands and fell into long-term disrepair. The current owners, who come from Kravsko, are redeveloping the site for social events and adventure tourism
