On the initiative of the Odrzykoniak Association, OSP (=Voluntary Fire Brigade) and Municipality of Wojaszówka the first in Podkarpacie Countryside Museum was opened on August 16 1998 within the frame of events devoted to the 650th anniversary of Odrzykoń.
Gathered numerous exhibits related to the history of Odrzykoń and the Castle Kamieniec include ethnographic collections, folk craft samples, old firefighting equipment, documents, photos and mementos. They illustrate almost all aspects of everyday life of Odrzykoń throughout the ages of its existence. Traditional folk clothing, old agricultural tools, bee-keeping equipment, lamps, carpentry tools, spinning and weaving stands, music instruments, firefighting accessories, paintings, photographs documenting social and economic transformation, military uniforms and honors related to the resistance fights and people who are considered extraordinary for Odrzykoń. All collections came into life thanks to generosity of the inhabitants and of the Municipality of Odrzykoń: everyday use things, very often completely unknown to people of today, which create a colorful mosaic of this place strongly rooted in this sub-Carpathian (of Podkarpacie ) landscape. The collections bring the inhabitants closer to their “little motherland”, show the roots from which they grew up and teach young people respect for their ancestors’ achievements. They are also a source of information for all visitors to the ruins of the Kamieniec Castle.
