The manor and park in Warka-Winiary is a place which welcomes people of all ages. We would like to especially welcome senior citizens. We are looking to start a partnership with all senior citizens institutions, including senior citizens clubs, golden age senior clubs, and world universities of the Third Age. Such partnership would give the worldwide community of senior citizens the opportunity to participate in talks on prominent Poles with ties to the United States of America, the history, culture and art of the 18th century, and the history, legends, and old customs connected with the town of Warka.
Feel free to contact us and ask about opportunities to participate in meetings featuring our exhibits from the permanent and temporary exhibitions as well as the nature associated with our historic park. We organize meets in the café on site, discussion evenings, and meetings with people involved in art and history.

Discover the Museum
During your visit to the Casimir Pulaski Museum in Warka, we will show you around the historic manor, looking to answer the question: What constitutes a museum? And do not worry, we guarantee that we are going to find the answer together! Along the way, we learn words typically used by museum staff and see a selection of the most fascinating exhibits on display. The lesson is also a fun way for the little ones to set foot in a museum for the first time in their lives.
Kazimierz or Casimir?
We come together to meet Casimir Pulaski, born Kazimierz Pułaski, by listening to a legend shrouding the brave soldier. Was he a cavalryman or a cavalier? Or maybe both? What is more, we strive to respond to the most important question: Why do we continue to look back on the life of an individual who passed away such a long time ago?
What was life in the olden days like?
Is there something like a 700-year-old tracksuit? It is safe to presume that people in the olden days wore different attire, isn’t it? During this guided tour to the Casimir Pulaski Museum in Warka, young students learn about the ways in which people used to live, what they had to eat, what they wore, what they did for a living, what they considered normal, what kind of music they listened to, and how they traveled. These are merely some of the themes that our educators help you explore. We will even see objects which people made a long, long time ago... and possibly confirm that the young visitors are able to correctly identify them.
Warka legends
At the Casimir Pulaski Museum in Warka, we acknowledge the importance of outdoor education. During the guided tour of the park, young students learn the mesmerizing and mysterious legends shrouding the site, which have been passed down from generation to generation by Warka residents. And we are sure that this enticing lesson will suit even the fussiest visitors! Would you like to see where the entrance to the secret tunnels under the park is hidden? Do you fancy knowing what secrets the brick chapel near the Museum hides? Are you interested to discover if the spirits of Swedish soldiers killed in the vicinity of Warka wander around the park at night? If so, you simply must visit our Museum, meet with our guide and buckle up for a wonderful adventure!
- Museum Sessions for the Little Ones are approx. 45 minutes long and the maximum group size is 25.
