A wonderful place. Here you can admire ancient buildings from Kashubia, Kociewie, and the Tuchola Forest. There are wooden cottages, windmills, an inn, churches, and entire old farmsteads. Travel back in time to see what people did when there was no internet! A truly interesting place, such living, fascinating history. You can peek into each building and see what it was like. Don't forget to buy tickets! http://www.muzeum-wdzydze.gda.pl/

In the village of Laska, at this place, on the initiative of the Nasze Gochy Foundation, the Guardian of Memory and Patriotism was unveiled. Antoni Mikołajczak was a border guard. He died at this place on September 1, 1939, from the bullets of the German aggressor.

The Museum – Teodora and Izydor Gulgowski Kashubian Ethnographic Park in Wdzydze Kiszewskie is located on the picturesque shores of Lake Gołuń. There are over 50 buildings characteristic of the rural landscape of Kashubia, Kociewie and Tuchola Forest from the 17th to the 20th century. Visitors can admire the wealth of old wooden architecture of Pomerania with its equipment: cottages, manors, a school, windmills, churches, inns, farm buildings and craft workshops. The farmsteads present: methods of grinding snuff and grinding grain, washing, mangling, tailoring, weaving, the work of a blacksmith, wheelwright and forest worker. The museum offers various workshops and shows, both for individual visitors and for groups. For the youngest visitors, an interactive exhibition has been prepared “Museum for fun?” - where children can experience the past and plan a museum of the future. This is an exhibition where you are allowed to touch the exhibits: check what it is like to sleep under a duvet, look inside a cast iron waffle iron and rummage through a kitchen cupboard. It tells about various museums that exist in the world; explains why we need museum collections in the first place; shows what kind of exhibits can be collected, for example, in open-air museums. It asks children and adults the question: "What matters to people?" In this way, the exhibition makes visitors aware that research never ends, and that history and tradition are constantly being created. https://wdzydzkipark.pl/o-parku-4/dziedzictwo-kulturowe-6/muzea/kaszubski-park-etnograficzny/

Super high tower, but the view of the lakes themselves is rather poor - a bit far from Lake Wdzydze.
