Villa Oksza in Zakopane

Villa Oksza features traditional mountain architecture with ornate wooden details, steep roofs, and decorative elements characteristic of regional construction methods.

Completed in 1896 under architect Stanisław Witkiewicz's direction, the villa was initially built for Bronisława and Wincenty Korwin-Kossakowski before Count Marcin Kęszycki acquired it.

The building stands as a prime example of Zakopane Style architecture, incorporating local craftsmanship and mountain region building techniques into its design.

The villa, located at Zamoyskiego 25, operates as part of the Tatra Museum, presenting exhibitions about regional art and architecture.

The ceiling beam contains an inscription commemorating the silver wedding anniversary of Count Marcin and Helena Kęszycki from February 7, 1899.
