Muzeum Ziemi Kujawskiej i Dobrzyńskiej we Włocławku

Muzeum Ziemi Kujawskiej i Dobrzyńskiej is a history museum in Włocławek displaying regional collections spanning archaeology, ethnography, art, and local heritage. Its departments present objects and findings that show how this region changed over time.

The institution started in 1908 when the Polish Tourist Society created it to preserve regional heritage. A major shift came in 1930 when it moved to its current neo-Gothic building, allowing the collections to grow and become more organized.

The collections reveal how people in this region lived, celebrated, and worked through everyday objects and traditional crafts. Visitors see clothing, tools, and religious items that show what mattered most to local communities.

The building sits at Słowackiego Street 1A in the city center and is easy to reach on foot. Staff offer guided tours and workshops throughout the year to help visitors understand the collections in depth.

The museum manages a restored 13th-century watermill located in the nearby village of Kłóbka, where visitors can watch how grain was traditionally ground. This separate building offers a glimpse into a craft that shaped daily life for many generations.
