Museums
A wooden house which once belonged to Władysław Orkan was turned into a museum dedicated to the writer who glorified the area of Gorczany. An authentic kitchen, dining room, the artist’s studio and his mother’s room as well as a great number of mementoes are exhibited there. The house is situated on the side of Pustka mountain along the trail leading from Niedźwiedź to Turbacz in the old orchard with trees planted by Orkan himself.
