Muzeĭ lemkivskoĭ kulʹturŷ v Zŷndranovi

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.

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.

The museum displays crafts and everyday tools used by the Lemko people who lived in the Carpathian Mountains. Visitors see religious objects and learn how this mountain community went about their daily work.

The museum sits near the Panna stream in the foothills of the Low Beskids and welcomes visitors on weekdays and weekends. Planning a visit in advance and checking opening times beforehand is recommended, as hours may vary seasonally.

The museum receives support from the Infrastruktura Kultury program, which organizes educational workshops about Lemko traditions year-round. These workshops allow visitors to experience hands-on learning about the practical skills and knowledge of this mountain community.
