This is an old Forge. The forge in Dolsko was built in 1781, as evidenced by the date carved on the lintel beam in the gable wall. It was a half-timbered building with an arcade supported by five pillars. For years, the building served its original function as a blacksmith and locksmith workshop. After the war, the building was taken over by the commune, but it no longer fulfilled its original function, so it quickly fell into disrepair. In 1955, the building was included on the list of monuments and considered one of the most valuable relics of rural architecture in Western Pomerania. Over the years, minor renovations were carried out here, but they were temporary; in 2009, the roof and one of the walls collapsed. In 2010, the forge was completely renovated thanks to the funds of the West Pomeranian Provincial Monument Conservator in Szczecin. Due to the poor condition of the building, it had to be dismantled and rebuilt, of course referring to the original shape and structure of the facility. After renovation, the forge retained its original architectural form. The building is covered with a high, gable roof covered with tiles. The half-timbered wall structures and columnar arcades with an inscription beam above the front door have been preserved. The current equipment of the forge refers to its original functions. The interior contains elements such as an anvil, an electric blower, a wheel drill, tool tables, a hoof for forging horses, blacksmith grippers, anvil beaters, blacksmith hammers, a turning tool and others. The facility is open to the public. The village head holds the keys to the forge and makes the facility available to visitors.
