Osada Łowców Fok w Rzucewie

Osada Łowców Fok w Rzucewie, Archaeological museum in Rzucewo, Poland

Osada Łowców Fok w Rzucewie is an archaeological open-air museum showcasing how Stone Age seal hunters lived on the Baltic coast. The site includes reconstructed dwellings from that period, displays of hunting tools and bone artifacts, and pathways that guide visitors through the remains of ancient settlements.

The settlement was founded around 7000 years ago as a seal hunting community on the Baltic coast. Systematic archaeological excavations beginning in the 1890s uncovered the distinctive Rzucewo culture and revealed important information about early human settlement in northern Europe.

The settlement demonstrates how communities adapted to life on the coast by developing specialized hunting techniques for seals and marine resources. The tools and bone artifacts visible here show the skills and knowledge passed down through generations of people living in this challenging environment.

The site is open year-round with walking paths designed for most visitors, though the outdoor setting means conditions change with the weather. Comfortable walking shoes are recommended since much of the museum is built on natural terrain without paved surfaces.

The site sits on an ancient amber trade route, and visitors can see genuine amber beads that were polished and worn by hunters living here. This reveals that the people of this settlement were connected to wider trade networks beyond their immediate coastal region.
