The blacksmith`s workshop is placed at a reconstructed area of the Museum. The hearth called viganj is built of bricks and with a chimney. It is placed by the wall, with the leather babble beside. In front of the hearth is a tub with water. The middle of the workshop presents a wooden pedestal, a tree stump in which an anvil is embedded. Movable anvils of smaller dimensions were used in the blacksmith workshop. The corner of the workshop was a place for grindstone for sharpening.
