About the route

The story begins with volcanology, then moves to mining and glass: from natural processes to working with raw materials. The next stops, ethnography and the townspeople's interior, compare workshop and household objects with furnishings from urban homes.

Historic clocks connect craftsmanship with the town-hall building. They lead to the council chamber, where decisions concerning Nová Baňa were made. Finally, photographs in Novobanské reflexie show how the town itself changed. This is a thematic sequence, not a set of directions between rooms.
