Currently, on the open-air museum area of ​​about 3.5 ha, there are 23 residential and farm buildings with appropriate equipment and several dozen objects of small architecture: rams, chapels, wells, rivers, etc. All buildings are of log construction, from the end of the 18th century to the first half of the 20th century, acquired from the area of ​​the Kurpiowska Zielona Forest. The area is characterized by specific, traditional folk culture, original Kurpie clothing, sculpture, ornamentation and wooden construction. Kurpiowski huts placed on stones represent almost classic forms in wooden folk architecture. In addition to the exhibition activities carried out here, during the summer, folklore events presenting the rich culture of the Kurpie region take place in the open-air museum.
