Muzeum Historii Przemysłu w Opatówku

The Museum of Industrial History in Opatówek occupies a former cloth factory with five floors featuring preserved wooden structures and cast-iron stairs throughout. The eight exhibition spaces hold machinery from different production eras along with textiles and tools that show how manufacturing once operated in the region.

The building was constructed in 1824 and operated as a cloth production center for the local economy for many decades. The facility eventually closed due to changing economic conditions, but was preserved and now offers insight into the region's industrial past.

The museum displays collections of historical textiles, including vestments from the 15th century, along with machinery and tools from industrial development.

The museum is located on Kościelna Street and welcomes visitors through its well-organized exhibition spaces filled with preserved production equipment. Groups can arrange guided tours to learn more about the displayed machines and the techniques they represent.

The collection includes a selection of pianos and related keyboard instruments from different periods, revealing how the region's production extended beyond textiles alone. These instruments tell a less obvious story about the breadth of local manufacturing.
