Muzeum Archeologiczno-Historyczne w Głogowie, Archaeological museum in central Głogów, Poland
The Archaeological and Historical Museum in Głogów is located in a reconstructed castle tower building that displays regional finds from different periods. The exhibition spaces present objects that provide insight into the material culture of this area.
The museum was founded in 1967 as an institution focused on metallurgy and foundry history, before relocating to another site in the early 1970s during castle restoration work. This move allowed the museum to reorient its focus toward archaeological and historical collections.
The museum houses objects that show how people lived in this region across the centuries, including coins, metalwork, and everyday items made from wood and leather. Walking through the exhibition rooms, visitors can see how communities here worked and lived in the past.
Visitors can join guided tours through the exhibition to learn more about the regional finds on display. The museum also offers special programs and workshops that help people understand the collection better.
The museum has developed specialized expertise in preserving metal objects, wood, and leather items, knowledge that extends beyond its own collection. This restoration capability makes it a valuable resource for other museums and institutions in the area.
