The Carpathian Troy Open–air Museum

The Carpathian Troy Open-Air Museum is an archaeological site in Trzcinica with reconstructed buildings, defensive walls, and settlement structures built on a fortified hill. The location showcases remains and structures from two different historical periods that existed one after the other.

The site served as a fortified settlement during the Bronze Age with walls and buildings. Centuries later, new people returned during the early Middle Ages and built different structures on the same hilltop.

The museum displays pottery, tools, and ornaments that show how people lived and worked in ancient times. You can see the daily objects that reveal the skills and tastes of the inhabitants who built this settlement.

The site is best visited during warmer months when the open-air museum is fully accessible and activities take place. Wear comfortable shoes since you will walk around the hill to explore the different areas and structures.

The hilltop may be connected to ancient Troy based on archaeological similarities between the two places. This comparison draws interest from visitors fascinated by how different civilizations in distant regions shared common patterns.
