Markowa Village Open Air Museum

Markowa Village Open Air Museum was established in 1979, as a way to preserve and display wooden houses from the late 19th and early 20th century, which in relatively large numbers survived in this area. The structures presented here reflect the arrangement of rich peasants’ homesteads once existing in Markowa. Visitors can see here seven fully furnished buildings: rich peasant’s timber-frame house from 1874, stable from a peasant’s homestead from the late 1800s, barn with a garage from the late 19th, granary from the 1800s, post mill from the 20th century, poor peasants’ hut with a pigsty as well as beehives with thatched roofs and a shadoof typically used by people of Markowa.
