Muzeum Wsi Mazowieckiej w Sierpcu

The Mazovian Countryside Museum is an open-air facility spread across large grounds displaying traditional wooden buildings, farmhouses, workshops, and agricultural structures relocated from their original locations throughout the region. The structures represent different periods and ways of rural life.

The museum was established in 1971 and has since gathered authentic buildings from various time periods to document the architectural evolution of rural settlements in the Mazovian region. These structures reveal how construction and dwelling practices changed over generations.

The place displays traditional crafts including blacksmithing, weaving, and pottery through working demonstrations by skilled artisans. Visitors can observe how these skills were integral to everyday life in rural communities.

The site features paved paths between buildings that are accessible for wheelchairs, with parking available near the entrance for visitors. Guided tours in multiple languages are offered to help explain the history and purpose of each structure.

Visitors can take part in hands-on activities such as grain harvesting, bread baking, and butter making using historical tools and methods. These activities directly demonstrate how labor-intensive and physically demanding everyday tasks were in the past.
