Museum of Oil and Gas Industry in Bóbrka, Industrial heritage museum in Bóbrka, Poland.
The museum contains numerous structures from the 19th century, including hand-sunk oil wells reaching depths of 150 meters and an original mechanical workshop.
Established in 1854, this location marks the first documented oil mine in the world, founded by Polish inventors Ignacy Łukasiewicz, Tytus Trzecieski, and Karol Klobassa-Zrencki.
The administration building, known as Łukasiewicz's House, displays the evolution of oil extraction techniques and the development of kerosene lamp technology in Poland.
Visitors can explore the facility Tuesday through Sunday, with seasonal hours varying from 7:00 to 17:00, featuring guided tours through the active oil extraction site.
