Description
The Lemko Culture Museum is a heritage museum in Barwinek containing traditional clothing, household items, photographs, and documents from the local community. These collections represent the material life and customs of the Lemko people who inhabited this mountain region.
History
After World War II, many Lemko people were forced to leave their homes in Podkarpacie and move to Soviet territories. The museum was established to preserve the cultural memory of this displaced mountain community.
