In sanok, the Skansen is a group of old buildings from around Sanok that have been brought to this area and set up.
These include old churches, schools etc. and give you an insight into light from 100 to 150 years ago.
They are all well preserved and worth visiting.
I would suggest you take a guide - on Mondays the Skansen is free, but again, without a guide it isn't quite as good.

I had a private guide since I was doing research. I highly recommend going with one as you will have access to some buildings otherwise locked. I've been to about five skansens and this is the largest. Very well presented with a great book available. You won't see it all in one day.

The open-air museum is a great way to get an idea of how life was in different eras.
Admittedly, it is very quiet depending on the season, but it is always very interesting.
The grounds are spacious and well-kept.
If you are nearby, it is worth a visit.

Four of us toured this museum with an English-speaking guide. This not only gives you valuable information, since there is almost no printed material, but you get access to the interior of a number of buildings that are locked. The museum itself is large enough to spend at least four hours visiting, if not longer. The restorations are well done and give you a good feel for how the four tribes in this area really lived. We have visited a number of open air museums in Europe and rate this as one of the most interesting and enjoyable.

This skansen has collected buildings from all over the area including Ruthenian churches that have been abandoned, several types of peasant houses, a rectory and now they are building a synagogue on an 18th century model. The large, cobbled market square gives the flavor of the 19th century. Our guide was local and well-versed in the history of the area. It truly gave a picture of life in former times.

What you know is that this is a museum of buildings, very good one. Apart from just a buildings, you can see lots of other exhibitions such as museum of ikons - fabulous, but don't understand why you cannot take picture there, few small village churches or a manor house.
Be aware while museum itself is open till late, most of the things inside - including nice souvenir shops - closes 4/5 pm latest.
Taking a guide (price 50 PLN for Polish language, foreign are more expensive) is a good choice, you will see much more of the inside of buildings plus history. It is not however a must. Even without a guide you will easily spend 2 hours there and not get bored. Highly recommended!

Lovely day for my visit. There is there a very realistic recreation of a village as they used to be. Lovely surroundings there are some decent souvineers for sale and the people selling and working there were very helpful and friendly all in all a good and educational experience

Nice skansen situated in beautiful nature. A lot of wooden houses in which you can see how people live in the past and where you can realize that you should be thankful for everything what we have nowadays in our homes. You can see traditional architecture of regions of southern Poland (Lemkowie, Pogorzanie, Dolinanie, Bojkowie) - houses of poor people, then one house of rich people and a few churches. You can go on your own or you can go with tourist guide( if you want to get into houses, because if do not pay for him, you can see interior just through window).
Small advice- on Sundays entrance until 11am is free of charge (but of course without tourist guide).

Huge ground, nicely located at the river, stunning architecture... I loved it, it was so nice to walk around the place, have a peek here and there... It's easy to imagine how people used to live, how tough it must have been. It's good they have made those little stores, bakery etc run by locals. Plus it's worth getting a guide.

The open air museum situated in Sanok is very unique.Not only one of the biggest in Poland,but it also shows variety of different cultures inhabiting the area before the 2nd WW.It consist of several wooden buildings typical for 19th century village like schools,churches,stables etc.And few years ago another attraction of a small city buildings was added.Really nice for a family day out.There is many attractions and festivals during the summer.One of the biggest is an antique fair that takes place every third Sunday of the month and attracts many dealers and collectors.Real treasure hunting for those who like vintage and antiques.

Witam . Czy istnieje możliwość zwiedzania z przewodnikiem i jaki byłby koszt dla zorganizowanej grupy 50 osób w dniu 3-05-2016 ? Dziękuję za odpowiedź .
Written February 17, 2016
Na pewno jest możliwość zwiedzania z przewodnikiem. Sadze ze gripe bedzie trzeba podzielić na mniejsze. Przewodnik oprowadza po domkach i tam dużo opowiada. 50 osob w jednym czasie zwyczajnie sie nie mieści. Ceny nie znam ale tam ogólnie było dosc tanio.
