Etnocentrum Ziemi Krosnienskiej

About

The Ethnocentre of the Krosno Region is a place of encounters with folk and traditional culture. We present traditional culture in a modern and innovative way. Visitors explore specially arranged spaces amidst ancient objects and songs. Fables, legends and tales are the main forms used, and they are adapted to particular age groups. In the interiors of the underground it is worth listening to original traditional songs and seeing old photographs in the scenery of the former railway platform. In the legends hall you can take a seat in a traditional ladder-sided wagon, and learn about one of the many local legends through animation and interaction. In the games room you will find both modern Kinect games and traditional board games. You can learn old skills by taking part in handicraft and cooking workshops. Doing our dance parties you can enjoy live music performed by original folk ensembles, learn popular folk dances from Krosno, and try actually doing them.
