Green Velo

In 1978, a museum was founded in Kolbuszowa, associated with the culture of folk architecture of the Lasowiakis and the Rzeszowiakis. The property covers an area of 25 hectares. Here are gathered thatched huts, farmhouses, a mill, a forge, an apiary, chapels and windmills. Part of the exhibition is devoted to urban buildings of the Galicia region.

Among the old cottages is located a pond that divides the sections dedicated to the Rzeszowiakis and to the Lasowiakis. Peace and quiet, an interesting terrain and the predominance of green mean that when you are visiting, you can have the feeling of being in a real village. In the museum, you can find a collection of folk utilitarian objects, such as costumes, tools and Kolbuszowa furniture. A collection of objects related to the fire brigade is also on display. Except for the open-air museum, Kolbuszowa does not have many tourist assets. However, the very location of the city is interesting, because it is on ... the Nile! However, the tourist does not have to fear that they will come across crocodiles in the small watercourse. This is merely a coincidence of names – probably a mistake made long ago when rewriting maps. The city, located among the forests of Sandomierz, is a good base to explore the surrounding woodlands and villages, where old folk traditions are cultivated.
