Szubin: Museums, Art and Culture

Culture in Szubin: Collections, Buildings and Imagery

The Muzeum Ziemi Szubińskiej has been in existence since 1993 and took over the traditions and collections of the Izba Pamięci Narodowej. Its museum objects are assigned to the history, ethnography and art departments. This three-part structure offers different thematic starting points: you can focus your interest on historical topics, ethnographic content or art. The collection therefore extends beyond a single field.

The museum is housed in the historic Dom Polski, built in 1912 with funds from the Polish population. This adds a history of the building to the history of the institution. The date and funding give the building a clear historical connection, while the collection departments explore different subjects. When planning your cultural visits, you can distinguish between these two aspects: the themes of the museum objects and the history of the building that houses the museum.

A mural in Szubin depicts a Pałuki folk music group in traditional dress in front of a wooden hut. Music, clothing and the hut shown together make up a specific visual motif. Those who enjoy viewing art through a single motif will find a different approach here than in the museum’s organized departments. The Muzeum Wodnik is also among Szubin’s museum-related topics: it was founded by Roman Berendt. Its founding provides another point of reference if you are interested in the history of individual cultural institutions.

In Brzózki, fifteen angel chapels form the symbolic, spiritual and artistic trail “Anielska Droga Brzózek.” Its focus differs from the collections in Szubin: here, the trail and the angel chapels are central. You can therefore consider whether to focus your plans more on museums and art motifs in Szubin or also include this distinctive nearby attraction.

At the Alpakowy Ogród in Stary Jarużyn, visitors can meet, pet and feed alpacas and other animals. Visitors were required to book in advance for an agreed time. Spending time with the animals is different from exploring collections or art.

The Szklany Tur Museum, dedicated to the history of glassmaking, displays products from the glassworks, tools, archive photographs and documents. The different types of exhibits offer several ways to explore the subject: alongside the products, visitors can also view tools, images and documents. This focus differs from the departments of the Muzeum Ziemi Szubińskiej and adds to the cultural options in the nearby area around Szubin.
