FRAGMENTS FROM THE FORTRESSES. SANTOK AND GRODZISZCZE

Our new temporary exhibition presents a collection of early medieval coins recovered during archaeological excavations carried out at the hillforts in Santok and Grodziszcze. The exhibition concept was developed by Paweł Kazimierczak and Rafał Wyganowski from the Department of Archaeology and Numismatics at the Lubuskie Museum. The coins from Santok date from the stronghold’s heyday. They were discovered during the millennium excavations in 1958–62, and during research conducted by Dr Kinga Zamelska-Monczak. The exhibition on display at our museum has been supplemented with artefacts acquired during research conducted by Dr Bartosz Gruszka at the Grodziszcze stronghold in 2017.

The exhibition forms part of the celebrations marking the anniversary of the coronation of Bolesław Chrobry (1025–2025).

Grand opening of the exhibition: 28 February 2025, 2.45 pm.
