Zagroda Wincentego Witosa

Zagroda Wincentego Witosa is a rural croft with multiple buildings from different periods, including a residence from 1814, stables, two barns, and service structures. The site displays the complete physical layout of an early farming operation with all necessary outbuildings arranged together.

The oldest building dates from 1814, but the owner acquired the land in the early 20th century and built additional structures between 1905 and 1913. These expansions coincided with his rise into national politics and eventually to the office of Prime Minister.

The croft displays how a prosperous farming family lived in the early 20th century, with rooms that reflect daily work and family routines. The collection shows rural conditions during the time when the owner rose to political leadership.

The site can be visited with guided tours that cover rural history topics as part of a museum network. Visitors should wear warm clothing and bring sturdy shoes since much of the grounds are outdoors and can be muddy.

The owner was initially a local farmer and grain merchant before holding the highest government position three times in separate periods. This unusual career path from rural roots to the nation's leadership is reflected in the physical changes made to the croft.
