This work is dealing with the historical utilization of wood and wood products selected by dendrochronological dating of selected economic buildings . The aim was to explore what kind of wood is the most commonly used for this type of product on the purpose to compare the results with the literature. Selected articles and dating of objects are situated in the area at the Village Museum of Southeast Moravia in Strážnice. For clarity, the products were divided into the two categories (furniture and farming products). Dated object of the building was originally drive-through from Hrušky. Anatomical identification was conducted in some subjects macroscopically within the museum. Among other subjects, samples were taken which were then determined in a laboratory microscope. The dating of samples of the main elements of the barn was performed according to standard dendrochronological methodology. Total results 1080 samples from 302 selected subjects. It has been identified 23 kinds of trees (4 conifers, broadleaves 4 with circularly porous structure, 15 broadleaves with scattered porous structure). Coniferous trees were primarily used for production of commodes and chests. For the production of dugout product was dominated use rather soft trees, especially poplar. Other farming products were manufactured primarily from wood with higher density (beech, ash, oak and elm). An interesting feature was the using of the fruit trees (cherry-tree, apple-tree, plum) or fewer frequently used trees (cornel, hazel) Investigated barn has been dated to the period after 1856. Use of such an amount of trees pointed out that domestic producers were not using it just their availability in the region, but also with regard to their physical and mechanical properties and their own experiences.
