Words fail to sufficiently describe the incredible collection of works of Beksinski. Items ranged from his early works - including photography and sculptures - to his iconic paintings and late digital explorations until his death. Highly recommended for anyone interested in the modern art scene of late 20th century.

Can't remember how many times I have visited this place before, but every time I do it is like a new experience within those old wooden buildings. It is the oldest and largest open air museum (the Swedish word skansen is used in Poland to name such places) in Poland (there are older such places within todays borders, but they were established in places that didn't belong to Poland before WWII), set up just after WWII. The museum presents the folk culture of the the eastern part of the Polish Carpathians. Established in 1958 this museum has its head office in castle park in central Sanok, as both establishements: the open air museum and historic museum are combined into one unit. First time we visited it was in the early nineties, and the part now called Rynek Galicyjski (Galician market) didn't even exist, it was just an open field. Many many houses moved from their origin place to this museum plus three completely different orthodox churches (tserkvas) and one catholic church are on display. Also a wooden manor. There's also a part commemorating long tradition of oil extraction, as Podkarpacie region was the first in the world to make use of crude oil. Skansen in Sanok is definitelly a place one must visit.

I really liked the castle. It was renovated few years ago, which you can spot right away. The castle looks really nice, especially from outside. Muzeum inside is adjusted to people on wheelchairs as you can find elevators and toilets adjusted to their needs. Inside you can find the exhibition of Zbigniew Beksiński and Icon Gallery. In my opinion, both exhibitions could be more modern, but because I love the works of Beksiński I won't complain much. For sure it is a must-see place if you are visiting the region.

A really nice sculpture of Zdzisław Beksiński. Once you leave his exhibition, which is located nearby in Sanok Castle, it is a really good feeling to once again look at this amazing artist and contemplate his artworks for a while. It is a great sculpture to take a picture with. I am happy that it is located close to the museum and the main square.
