Sądecki Ethnographic Park

The largest open-air museum in Lesser Poland, presenting wooden architecture and traditional folk culture of local ethnographic groups - Lachs, Pogórzans and Górale Sądeckie and ethnic groups: Lemkos, Germans and Gypsies. On the area of 20 hectares there are several dozen buildings, e.g. peasant homesteads, a 17th-century nobleman's mansion with a unique interior polychrome, a manor farm and 18th-century temples: a Roman Catholic church, a Greek Catholic church and a Protestant church. In one of the sectors, the buildings of the German colonists from Gołkowice Dolne were reconstructed, and a small Gypsy settlement on the edge of the forest. The exhibition of the open-air museum presents the chronological, property and social diversity of the folk culture of the Sądecczyzna region, and the knowledge about the tradition of the region is enriched by thematic ethnographic exhibitions: "Wedding Room" and "Lemko Maziarstwo". The surroundings of homesteads with the arrangement of greenery have a traditional character. The newest attraction is the Galician Town with the reconstruction of a small market square, town hall, inn, fire station and town houses. You can rent guest rooms and conference rooms here. The open-air museum hosts cyclical and occasional presentations of old rural crafts, regional cuisine and handicraft workshops, and in the summer numerous outdoor folklore events.
