A peasant's house from 1920

The open-air museum in Sierpc is a linear village consisting of ten homesteads, two manors, a church, an inn, a smithy, an oil mill and a windmill. "Linear village" means that the cottages with farm buildings are located on one side of the road, and on the other there are arable fields. This arrangement of villages was common in Mazovia after the enfranchisement of peasants in 1864.

This sounds like a nice museum to visit and acquaint oneself with history. That fence is really interesting- it must have taken some patience to make it that way. Good shot!

A nice shot of this cottage. I looked this museum up on Google. Some very interesting buildings and farm areas. A museum that my husband and I would have enjoyed had we ever visited Poland.

An important museum to visit, reading about things is one thing but experiencing them first hand can really be informative.
