Kovački zanat je već davno iščezao ne samo iz gradova veći iz sela… ta tko još ima konja za potkovati ili alat za popraviti? Čini se kao da se kovači još mogu sresti samo na turističkim manifestacijama koje posjetitelje uvode u srednjovjekovno doba, doba vitezova i njihovih kovanih mačeva i potkovanih konja.
Ali ako se malo bolje zagledamo u sakrivene kutke grada još je moguće osjetiti miris kovačke vatre i čuti zvuk nakovnja! Jedna od takvih kovačkih radionica se nalazi i na Trešnjevci, na njenom krajnjem sjevernom rubu, u malenom hangaru koji se nalazi uz Meršićevu ulicu, uz sporedne teretne kolosijeke Zapadnog kolodvora koji tek tu i tamo dočekaju posjet vagona.
U hangaru se nalazi veliko ognjište i najnužniji kovački alat.

Blacksmithing has long since disappeared not only from the cities but also from the villages... but who still has a horse to shoe or a tool to repair? It seems as if blacksmiths can still be found only at tourist events that introduce visitors to the Middle Ages, the age of knights and their forged swords and shod horses.
But if we look a little closer in to the city's hidden corners, it is still possible to smell the forge fire and hear the sound of anvils! One such blacksmith's workshop is located on Trešnjevka, on its northernmost edge, in a small hangar along Meršićeva Street, next to the freight tracks of the West Station, which only occasionally welcome the visit of wagons.
The hangar has a large fireplace and the most necessary blacksmith's tools.
