On the island of Brač, stone is more than just a material.
It is part of the landscape, part of houses and churches, but also part of the lives of people who have lived here for generations.
At the Kameni otok workshop, visitors have the opportunity to experience this tradition firsthand. Through a guided story and tour of the workshop, they discover how a raw block of stone is created into an object that can last for centuries.
During the visit, you will see how stone is cut, shaped and polished, how small stone balls and souvenirs are created, but also how modern technology today complements traditional stonemasonry techniques.
This is not just a tour of the workshop.
It is an encounter with one of the oldest crafts in the Mediterranean.
For those who want to experience more, there is the opportunity to participate in a stonemasonry workshop. With the help of a master stonemason, you can take a chisel and hammer in your hands and try to shape the stone yourself.
Only when you make your first mark in the stone do you begin to understand how special this craft is.
Journey Through Stone combines tradition, knowledge and the experience of creation – leaving visitors with a memory they can take with them and a story they will remember for a long time.
