Buškův hamr, Water-powered hammer mill in Trhové Sviny, Czech Republic
The hammer mill contains three water wheels that power the grinder, hammer, and blowers through an overflow water cascade system.
Founded in 1780 near a former bone meal mill, Buškův hamr operated continuously until 1948 when Jan Bušek stopped working due to illness.
The mill represents traditional Czech metalworking techniques, with its collection of hammer tools demonstrating the skill of individual craftsmen.
Located 1 kilometer southwest of Trhové Sviny, the site accepts only cash payments and requires checking current opening hours before visiting.
The facility features the largest oak hammer in the Czech Republic, weighing 300 kilograms and capable of 150 strokes per minute.
