Kashubian Ethnographic Park

Reviewed By AAS619

This is an open air museum and excellent example of a rich local culture going way back in time. The exhibits are immaculate, and organized to smallest details. Houses and their furnishings were all equally interesting, from the rich households to the modest peasant’s quarters. There is also a church, which is part of the museum and service is still held on Sundays, people get married here as well. The museum is covering a large area of land, and there are no paved roads, or sidewalks. I also did not see benches to sit and rest or toilets.
We were visiting off season and during a time when no events were scheduled. On the plus side we didn’t deal with crowds, on the negative side, we missed opportunity to see rituals, experience workshops etc.
The downfall was our guide -completely lacked enthusiasm – she would rattle out basic info about the house we were entering, and then stood there like a statue without saying a word, unless she was asked a question. She was very knowledgeable- that much we figured out, and could have brought this place to life if she tried. We were showing a lot of interest in pretty much everything, but not once did she take an initiative to explain more on her own, and her demeanor was discouraging rather than encouraging communication. I feel like we missed out on a lot because of her (and the fact that we visited outside the summer season). It is too bad, because otherwise it would have been excellent experience.

Railway Museum in Koscierzyna

Reviewed By Małgorzata L

I've visited this museum with my husband, just two adults and we had fun like children. The musuem isn't large, it takes about 45-60 minutes to see all the trains. And they are amazing. Most of them you can climb the steps to the operator's room and take a peak (in some cases even step) inside. Go and enjoy even if you're not that much into trains, children or no children.

Accordion Museum

Reviewed By jamesbE781WR

I always considered accordion music the happiest music on earth. While visiting the hometown of my great, great grandfather (it was called Berent in West Prussia back then), we stepped into the Kościerzyna city museum. The young woman who spoke good English asked us why we were visiting and we told her. To our surprise, she invited us to see the museum at no charge! (I would've only been the equivalent of a couple dollars). On the first floor of the museum is the accordion museum! There are move that a few dozen accordions on display and a nice cut out allows visitors to take funny pictures. There are also a couple accordions in the museum that you are allowed to pick up and try. All the displays are in Polish....no English. But half the fun is just looking at the elaborate musical instruments that make everyone happy and want to drink beer when they hear it play! Stop and visit this one-of-a-kind place! And if you want to know more about the village, the town's history is told in two or three floors. Again, all in Polish...no English translations.
