About

Muzeum Wsi Lubelskiej is one of Poland’s largest and most atmospheric open‑air museums, beautifully situated in the valley of the Czechówka River on the outskirts of Lublin. Designed as a faithful reconstruction of traditional rural, small‑town and manor‑house life in the region, it brings together historic wooden architecture, farmsteads, workshops, chapels and a charming town square. Each sector reflects a different cultural and landscape area of Lubelszczyzna, allowing visitors to wander through villages, orchards, fields and gardens that recreate everyday life from past centuries. Interiors are furnished with authentic tools, household items and seasonal decorations, offering insight into local customs, crafts and agricultural traditions. Throughout the year, the museum hosts events, demonstrations and educational activities that revive long‑forgotten skills and rituals. Immersive, spacious and rich in detail, Muzeum Wsi Lubelskiej offers a vivid journey into the heritage of the region.
