Muzeum im. Zofii i Wacława Nałkowskich, Literary museum in Wołomin, Poland.
The museum occupies a wooden house built in 1895 on a sandy hill in Wołomin. A meadow separates the building from the main road, creating a sheltered setting that houses collections documenting the family's life.
The house was home to geographer Wacław Nałkowski and his daughter Zofia, a noted writer. Financial difficulties forced the family to leave the property in 1937.
The rooms display family photographs, books, and personal objects arranged to show how the household lived across different periods. Walking through them gives you a sense of daily life in this writer's home.
The museum is open from Tuesday to Sunday between 10:00 and 15:00, with guided tours available by advance arrangement. Contacting ahead ensures you get the best experience and can arrange a suitable time.
A maple tree planted by Wacław Nałkowski in the park still grows there today. This living tree serves as a testament to the family's lasting bond with the place.
