The museum is located in the village of Petrokerasa, Thessaloniki regional unit, Greece. It is situated in the highlands north of the Chalkidiki peninsula. It was founded in 1976 aiming to preserve and perpetuate the folk tradition and folk heritage. The museum has four rooms, in which are displayed 750 objects exclusively from Petrokerasa. The first room has weapons (flintlocks, powder magazines, sabres), a large Byzantine oil jar, and the documents granting the village the privilege of hosting a piece of the True Cross on Palm Sunday every year without fail since 1767. In the second room there is a complete loom with all its accessories, together with a variety of woven textiles produced in the village. The third room has all the traditional costumes from the village, mens and womens, contemporary underwear; and all the old ecclesiastical books, codices, and manuscripts relating to the history of the village. In the fourth room, lastly, are displayed the tools of various trades and occupations: tile-making, carpentry, hunting, beekeeping, viniculture, horse-grooming, and, of course, agriculture. Of particular note are a traditional wooden ard or scratch plough and a metal plough. Apart from the museum itself, it is also worth visiting the beeswax workshop, where the villagers still use the traditional hand-operated device for extracting honey and wax. == Gallery == File:Macedonian_Museums-52-Laografiko_Petrokerasvn-228.jpg|Agricultural implements File:Macedonian_Museums-52-Laografiko_Petrokerasvn-229.jpg|A traditional wooden plough File:Macedonian_Museums-52-Laografiko_Petrokerasvn-230.jpg|Traditional Costumes File:Macedonian_Museums-52-Laografiko_Petrokerasvn-231.jpg|The traditional beeswax workshop 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Petrokerasa Folklore Museum」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
