Gutenbuchel Mansion

Gutenbuchel Mansion is a two-story building from the 17th century with traditional Slovenian architectural features located in Ravne. The structure preserves original design elements and interior spaces that remain functional for community use.

The property was owned by the Woschangg family until World War II, when they were expelled from Slovenia. Afterward, the building served as a psychiatric facility for several decades.

The name reflects a family that shaped the property through generations, and the building now serves as a meeting place for the community during seasonal gatherings and celebrations.

The mansion is accessible to visitors through community spaces in Ravne and can be visited during designated times. Check local information before arriving to confirm current access conditions and any visitor requirements.

After standing abandoned for eight years, the mansion was revived through a community-driven project that brought together local residents, artists, and small business owners. This collective effort restored purpose to the building and demonstrated how neighbors can work toward shared goals.
