Tarnobrzeg City History Museum

The Historical Museum of the City of Tarnobrzeg, established in 1991 through the efforts of Adam Wójcik and the Society of Friends of Tarnobrzeg, is a significant cultural and regional institution. It has operated as a self-governing cultural unit since 1992. After more than a decade of functioning in a former manorial granary, the museum relocated its main headquarters to the impressive Dzików Castle in 2011. This historic building, with its rich past, is an important architectural landmark in the region. The new location not only enhanced the museum's offerings but also contributed to the reconstruction of the former Dzików collections, underscoring its role in preserving local cultural heritage. The museum does not limit itself to showcasing the history of Tarnobrzeg; it also actively organizes diverse thematic exhibitions. Notable events, such as the exhibition dedicated to the Jędrusie resistance group and the display of the "Pan Tadeusz" manuscript in 1998, attract both locals and tourists. In 2013, the Museum of the Polish Sulfur Industry was established on the grounds of the granary, highlighting the institution's broad interests and its commitment to exploring various aspects of local history. Through its dedicated efforts and diverse programs, the Historical Museum of the City of Tarnobrzeg plays a key role in promoting the culture and history of the region, creating a space where tradition meets modernity.
