Leżajsk Land Museum

The Museum of the Leżajsk Land is located in the 18th-century Starost’s Manor in Leżajsk and is a regional institution established on the initiative of the district authorities in 2004. The manor, which underwent a thorough revitalization, is an example of valuable Baroque architecture and reflects the historical significance of the region. The museum was officially opened on January 1, 2008, as a self-governing cultural institution, with Andrzej Chmura serving as its director. The museum focuses on the multicultural heritage of the Leżajsk Land, showcasing diverse exhibitions related to local traditions and history. Its collections include the Brewing Exhibition, the Ethnographic and Toy-Making Exhibition, the Historical Exhibition, and the Archaeology and Old Polish History Exhibition. The museum organizes numerous events, including temporary exhibitions, lectures, and workshops for children, highlighting its commitment to education and the promotion of cultural heritage. A unique feature is the opportunity to explore the cellars of the Starost’s Manor, which adds an element of mystery and appeal to the institution. Thanks to strict conservation protection, the Museum of the Leżajsk Land is not only an educational venue but also an important point on the cultural map of the region, contributing to the history of Leżajsk and its inhabitants.
