Barn with characteristic 'palancin' balcony for drying grain
This twin farmhouse's mother farm was first mentioned in records in the 15th century. The wooden farm building situated on top of the cellar dates back to the 16th century. The 'palancin' balcony, a scaffolding-like structure used up until the early 1960s for drying and maturing grain grown in the farm's fields (barley, rye, oats) and running around three sides of the barn, is characteristic for Gröden.
