Polish Sculpture Centre

The Polish Sculpture Centre is an art museum and sculpture garden housed in a complex of buildings that includes a neo-Renaissance manor, an orangery, a chapel, and contemporary exhibition spaces set on landscaped grounds. The facility contains hundreds of sculptures in various styles and is complemented by specialized workshops where different sculpting techniques are practiced and developed.

The facility began in 1965 as a sculpture garden in this location and was later developed into a national institution. Support from cultural authorities in the 1980s enabled the expansion and professionalization of the collection and its infrastructure.

The Centre displays works by artists whose names resonate in Polish art circles, presented in spaces surrounded by period furnishings that reflect the building's 19th-century origins. This blend of historic objects and contemporary sculpture creates a setting where different artistic eras coexist naturally.

The site is straightforward to navigate with clear pathways connecting the different buildings and outdoor areas. Wearing comfortable shoes is recommended since you will walk between exhibition spaces and garden areas throughout your visit.

The grounds serve not only as a place to view finished works but also offer visitors direct glimpses into the creative process by allowing observation in working studios where sculptors practice their craft. This opportunity to watch artistic work in progress sets the location apart from many other collections.
