Excursion and Picnic to Sucha Open Air Museum

The CCC has planned a picnic and excursion from Warsaw to the Sucha Open Air Museum about 70 kms east of the capital on Saturday May 25th.

The village of Sucha is the site of the Museum of Wooden Architecture of the Siedlce Region. Each building, saved from imminent destruction, was moved to its present location. The baroque single-storey manor, with an annex on each side is covered by a raised roof lined with shingles. 

In 1787, King Stanislaw August Poniatowski was a guest at the manor. In 1814, August Cieszkowski, philosopher and economist, was born here.

Sucha village lies on the banks of the Kostrzyn river, next to an extensive group of lakes, close to a beautiful forest with a unique larch alley.

Many classic Polish films have had scenes shot here.

We hope to take advantage of the beautiful Spring weather! 

If your classic is 'out of commission', off the road or otherwise in a decrepit state you are quite welcome to come in a modern armed with CCC enthusiasm for a 'natter and noggin' about the challenge of running and maintaining classic cars in Poland.

If you have a classic car and would like to join us on this excursion or simply join the CCC (being a 'casual' car club of course there is no subscription) contact the present Chairman    Michael Moran   mjcmoran@wp.pl
