This charming open-air museum is situated in a picturesque scenery of lush greenery and rustling streams. The reconstructed buildings of the settlement are presented here: huts, gate and partly - a palisade (fence made of wooden piles). All elements of the development were reconstructed exactly in the places where their relics were discovered, i.e. the remains of authentic elements of buildings existing in the past.

The establishment of the open-air museum is in line with the currently propagated trend of experimental archeology. Its purpose is to protect archaeological monuments and to popularize history. The archaeological and historical festivals, which are organized annually, are especially conducive to popularizing history. They include a series of cultural and tourist events with a strong emphasis on the educational dimension of the entire undertaking. In addition, historical outdoor events, integration meetings of Polish and foreign youth are organized, and, above all, live history lessons for children and school youth are held here. At that time, workshops of old crafts come to life, there are numerous competitions, plebeian games, demonstrations of sword and ax fights, archery, weapons presentations, spectacular Celtic, Scottish and Irish dances and early music concerts.
