Museum of Metallurgy and Machine Industry
Overview
Housed in a preserved 19th‑century ironworks complex, this branch of the National Museum of Technology presents the industrial architecture and machinery of historic Polish iron production. The site interprets local iron‑making traditions from the Staropolskie Okręgu Przemysłowego and the region's industrial past.
