"Polish Flowers" is a journey through Polish rituals on the trail of flowering plants, full of riddles and mysteries. Its rhythm is determined by the seasons and the eternal cycle of life. In seven rooms full of flowers, colours and adventures, a multi-sensory path awaits children and their caregivers along with an exuberant bouquet of knowledge from fields such as ethnography, cultural anthropology, botany or natural science.

Have you ever tried on a wedding dress? Here is your chance! You will also be able to swing on ropes made of linen and hemp and see how flower dyeing comes out in practice for artists. Here you will delight in traditional folk design that loves flowers. You will listen to traditional flower songs and make a flower map of Poland. You will delve into one of the more loved traditional topics in ethnography - ethnobotany and folk medicine. You will be able to study the structure of the flower in detail and learn how it differs from the inflorescence. The exhibition will also be an ideal opportunity to discover what flowers have in common with straw and hay and what flowers bloom at night.

See for yourself and discover the magic of flowers with us at the "Polish Flowers" exhibition!

We are opening the exhibition at a special time, in the year of the museum's 135th anniversary and in the tenth year of uninterrupted exhibition activity aimed at the youngest. It is also our tenth family exhibition, through which we encourage the public to explore an ethnographic perspective on interpreting cultural phenomena. The 'Polish Flowers' exhibition creates an opportunity to look at a variety of past and present Polish practices in which people use flowers and to consider how and why they do so. It is in the nature of human beings to create culture and they continually create it by referring to the resources of their 'natural surroundings'. This environment, in times of enormous human influence on it, becomes a transformed landscape - to some extent the result of human culture.
