The Amber Museum is a unique place, born of the passion for amber of its originator and owner Tomasz Mikołajczyk
Why is it worth visiting us? Because unique exhibits have been collected here, showing the natural beauty of Baltic amber and testifying to its uniqueness. Every visitor will find here the answer to the question of what Baltic amber is, where to look for it and see unique nuggets with inclusions. Moreover, you can admire here a unique and perhaps one of the few - a lump of amber with a drop of water! An additional interesting feature will certainly be the comparison of how our amber differs in appearance from other resins we encounter
