Herrenhaus von Aleksandra Bąkowska
Lokaler Name: Dworek Aleksandry Bąkowskiej
The museum presents mainly the history of the Mazovian nobility, court rooms and paintings. Among the most interesting exhibits are the seventeenth-century fabrics on the walls, the old lithography depicting the emblems of the Polish nobility, as well as all kinds of badges and memorabilia from insurrections attesting to the great patriotism of the inhabitants of the court.
The headquarters of the museum is a noble manor house belonging to Aleksandra Bąkowska from the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. The building is preserved in original style.
Aleksandra Bąkowska was a middle-class daughter, but very conservative and demanding nobility. Forced to marriage, she rebelled and left for Warsaw, where she began her social and educational activities. She published articles on improving the quality of life of peasants, and in 1909 she established a school of farming for girls.
