Muzeum Mazowsza Zachodniego w Żyrardowie, Regional museum in Żyrardów, Poland.

The Western Mazovia Museum sits in a former industrial magnate's villa spanning three floors of exhibition space. The collections focus on regional crafts, traditional clothing, textile manufacturing equipment, and works by local creators.

The building was owned by Karol Dittrich, who managed the textile factory in the 19th century and shaped the region's industrial growth. The villa now stands as a record of the town's peak years as a manufacturing center.

The museum displays regional artworks and local traditions, including paintings by artist Józef Rapacki who captured the life of this area. These pieces reflect how culture and industry shaped the identity of the community.

The collection spreads across three floors, so comfortable footwear helps when exploring all areas. The building sits centrally in town and is easy to reach on foot, making it a good stop between other local spots.

The museum holds a large watercolor from 1899 made specifically for the Paris World Fair that shows a panoramic view of the town. This rare work offers a striking glimpse into how the city looked during its industrial peak.
