Kosova graščina

The Kosovo manor house was built in 1521 by the lessee of the Counts of Celje, Žiga Dietrichstein. Above the balcony door, the Belopeg coat of arms has been preserved, and it is also mentioned in the sources as the "old Belopeški Castle". In the 18th century, the Khevenhüllers from Carinthia, the Eggenberg princes and the Trillegkh counts took ownership. In 1812, it was bought by the merchant Frančišek Pavel Kos and restored in 1821. After him, the manor got its current name. At the end of the 19th century, the building was bought from the Kranjska industrije družba by the Srenja from Jesenice. Until 1915, it housed the premises of a folk school, between the two wars, offices, courts and prisons.

Since 1985, the renovated manor house has housed a permanent exhibition of the recent history of Jesenice, a gallery for occasional museum and art exhibitions, and a preserved prison cell with an exhibition on denationalization policy in Gorenjska. On the second floor are the municipal protocol and wedding halls.
