Part of the Hanušov Historical Zone is also the house of the administrator of the manor, a two-storey block building belonging to the Šoš family. The building served as the economic background of the 16th century manor house in the immediate vicinity. It was built of rubble stone, with brickwork combined with brick at the window and door openings. The original stone portal is preserved at the entrance to the upper floor. Later the house was rebuilt when a longitudinal extension of burnt brick was added, within which three new rooms were created, covered with a beamed ceiling. Today on the ground floor you will find a guest room, a kitchen, as well as a workshop, on the first floor there is an ethnographic exposition called Spirit of the Nation, which presents the folk culture of Šariš and Zemplín, on the border of which Hanušovce lies. It presents various working tools used by peasants in the past. In the „parádná chiza“ as the living rooms of today were called, you will find a table, high beds, a cradle, a 'lada', and a kitchen area with utensils and bread baking tools.
