In the back room, which in the past was used for sleeping and daily life, there is an exhibition on the history of mining in the vicinity of Vyšná Boca. There are two chambers in the house, one so-called room for occasional sleeping and storage of duvets and clothes, the second chamber was used to store household utensils and food. In the farm building, the "stable", which is part of the farm, there is an exhibition of cattle, sheep and meadow farming, which were characterized by characteristic features in Bocianská dolina and after the suppression of mining activities became one of the main jobs of the local population.

In the summer, demonstrations of traditional forms of hay transport "Bocké batohy" and occasional events dedicated to the mining traditions of Bocianská dolina are being prepared. Part of the Mining Route - a cognitive and experiential product from the portfolio of the Liptov Museum in Ružomberok. National cultural monument.
