The Ethnographic Museum is housed in a building complex along Vistula Promenades which includes a historical garner built in mid-19th century.
The garner’s front wall faces the Vistula River and used to be a warehouse serving transhipment purposes. It has classical architecture elements.
It’s a four storey building with a two-gable roof. The garner was renovated and a new part in the same architectural style was built on its top. Before there used to be a wooden garner in this place but it burnt down in 1862.
Permanent exhibition of Folk Art of Kujawy and Ziemia Dobrzyńska takes up three storeys of the historical garner. It presents the Polish countryside from the turn of the 19th and 20th century and shows the key elements of the non-longer existing folk culture.
