Ostrów Lednicki, Archaeological museum on Lake Lednica island, Poland

The museum contains remains of a medieval fortress with stone palatium, chapel ruins, and fragments of two wooden bridges crossing Lake Lednica.

The stronghold served as a residence for Duke Mieszko I and Boleslav the Brave during the formation of the Polish state in the 10th century.

The museum displays over 300 early medieval military artifacts, including swords, helmets, and religious items such as an ivory liturgical comb.

Visitors can explore the roofed ruins, examine archaeological exhibits, and learn about medieval Polish architecture through detailed educational presentations.

Underwater archaeological research revealed preserved remnants of two tenth-century wooden bridges that connected the island to routes toward Poznań and Gniezno.
