Poltisočletna zgodba Idrije se je pričela z odkritjem redke in dragocene tekoče kovine – živega srebra. Vznemirljivo odkritje je privabljalo številne nove rudarje in kmalu se je razvila živahna rudarska naselbina, nad katero je od leta 1533 bdel rudniški grad Gewerkenegg. Živo srebro je ob odkritju postopka amalgamacije v 16. stoletju z odkritjem južnoameriških rudnikov srebra in zlata pridobivalo na svojem pomenu in idrijski rudnik je kmalu postal drugi največji proizvajalec te edine tekoče kovine na svetu, na tujem pa je slovel po odlični tehnični opremljenosti. Z rastjo rudnika se je Idrija v 18. stoletju razvila v drugo največje mesto na Kranjskem, kamor so se priseljevali delavci iz številnih dežel. Njen svetovljanski značaj so poudarjali nekateri najvidnejši predstavniki domačega in evropskega razsvetljenstva. Na tehničnem področju je izstopal politehnik in konstruktor klavž Jožef Mrak, medtem ko sta Idrijo na mednarodni zemljevid postavila sloveča naravoslovca tirolski zdravnik Giovanni Antonio Scopoli in bretanski kirurg Balthasar Hacquet. Med ženami rudarjev se je že v 17. stoletju razširila dejavnost izdelovanja klekljanih čipk, ki so zaradi svoje lepote in nežnosti predvsem pri premožnejših slojih uživale visok ugled. Najslavnejša klekljarica je bila domačinka Ivanka Ferjančič, ki je bila odlična klekljarica in prva učiteljica v idrijski čipkarski šoli. -------------------------------------------------- The half-a-millennium-long history of Idrija began with the discovery of a rare and valuable liquid metal: mercury. The exciting discovery draw many miners into the valley that soon saw the development of a lively mining settlement, topped with a mining castle Gewerkenegg since 1533. With the discovery of the amalgamation procedure accompanying the discovery of South American silver and gold mines, mercury gained recognition and the Idrija mine soon became the second largest producer of this sole liquid metal in the world, while abroad it was renowned for its excellent technical equipment.
With the mine on the rise, 18th century saw Idrija develop into the second largest town in the Kranjska region, welcoming numerous workers from many lands. Some of the most renowned members of home and European Enlightenment emphasized its cosmopolitan character. The technical domain was proud of polymath and klavže constructor Jožef Mrak, while Idrija was put on the international map by the famous natural scientists Giovanni Antonio Scopoli, a Tirolian doctor, and Balthasar Hacquet, a surgeon of Breton descent.
In the 17th century, the miners’ wives began practicing the craft of bobbin lacemaking; the beauty and delicateness of their lace were held in high regard especially in the higher class. The most famous lacemaker was Ivanka Ferjančič, an excellent local lacemaker and the first teacher in Idrija Lace School.
