Muzeum Henryka Sienkiewicza w Woli Okrzejskiej

The Muzeum Henryka Sienkiewicza w Woli Okrzejskiej is a literary museum housed in a restored manor building with several exhibition rooms. The collection displays manuscripts, photographs, personal items, and artworks connected to the writer's life and work.

The museum stands at the birthplace of Nobel Prize winner Henryk Sienkiewicz, who wrote famous novels like Quo Vadis and With Fire and Sword. These works were created during a time of major political change in Poland and helped strengthen national identity.

The exhibition spaces show how Sienkiewicz worked as a writer and journalist, and how his novels later came to life on stage and in films. Visitors can see how his works shaped Polish culture and what role they played in people's lives.

The manor lies in a rural setting, so having your own transportation or using local travel options is helpful to reach it. The exhibitions are spread across multiple rooms throughout the building, so plan to spend time walking through the spaces.

The collection holds the writer's personal spectacles from Vevey along with illustrations for his historical trilogy and a piano from his youth. These objects give visitors a direct glimpse into the everyday items that accompanied his life while writing.
