At <strong>Kunstelj Inn<\/strong> this is true since, from its very beginning, it has been family-run. Maybe it is precisely because of this that Kunstelj Inn has developed a tradition of homeliness, warmth and genuine hospitality.<\/p>\n<p>The running of the inn has been passed from generation to generation, and today <strong>the fourth generation of the \u0160tiherle family<\/strong> is at the helm. This time we reveal who are the couples that have been the driving force, successfully running the inn throughout the years with much care and attention.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Jerica and Janez<\/strong><br \/>\nOur grandma, Jerica \u0160tiherle, bought Kunstelj Inn in 1926. She was a widow with two children. Following the death of her first husband, Jerica and her children moved to Radovljica, married Janez, and maintained the running of the inn single-handedly. It was important to Jerica that the inn offered the best food all-year round. She always knew exactly what she wanted and told everyone straight to their face what it was. It was because of this that people said that she was fearless (&#8216;gajstna&#8217;).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_549\" style=\"width: 601px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-549\" class=\"size-full wp-image-549\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kunstelj.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/jerica.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"591\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kunstelj.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/jerica.jpg 591w, https:\/\/www.kunstelj.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/jerica-222x300.jpg 222w, https:\/\/www.kunstelj.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/jerica-600x812.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 591px) 100vw, 591px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-549\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Fearless Jerica<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>Anton and Marija<\/strong><br \/>\nJerica handed over Kunstelj Inn to her son Anton and his wife Marija. The couple <strong>met at Roblek<\/strong>, where Marija worked in the mountain hut. They soon married and had a son, Toni. In the period where they were at the helm, Kunstelj Inn acquired a wider reputation, not least because the<strong> former president of Yugoslavia, Josip Broz &#8216;Tito&#8217;<\/strong>, used to enjoy visiting. Marija was a master at preparing \u0161truklji, bread and potica.
