The Museum of the Poznań Bambers tells the story of the Bamberg settlers who arrived in the 18th century and became an integral part of the city’s identity. Housed in a historic building in Jeżyce, the museum presents the everyday life, traditions, and cultural legacy of these German‑speaking farmers who blended seamlessly into the local community. Exhibits include original costumes, household items, documents, and photographs that illustrate how the Bambers preserved their customs while adopting Polish language and civic life. The museum highlights their contribution to the development of Poznań’s suburbs, their role in agriculture, and the symbolic importance of the Bamberka figure, now a beloved emblem of the city. Intimate and atmospheric, the museum offers a thoughtful look at coexistence, cultural exchange, and the formation of a unique local heritage.
