The Museum of the Slovincian Village at Kluki

The open-air museum in the village of Kluki on Lake Łebsko presents the buildings and culture of the Slovincians — the old Slavic people of this part of Pomerania, who all but disappeared in the 20th century. Surviving farmsteads, cottages and exhibitions open up life beside the lake and the dunes.

The Slovincians and their culture

The Slovincians were a Slavic people who lived for centuries beside Lake Łebsko — from fishing and from farming poor soils. Through the 19th and 20th centuries the community almost entirely disappeared. The open-air museum at Kluki keeps its memory: surviving and relocated farmsteads, dwelling houses and farm buildings on the site of the old village.

What you will see

  • Slovincian farmsteads — cottages, barns and interior furnishings
  • Exhibitions — everyday life, fishing and craft
  • The setting — on Lake Łebsko, within Słowiński National Park
