The first permanent exhibition in Stalowa Wola museum presents archaeological, historical and ethnographic relics.

In the archaeological part of the exhibition there are monuments showing the changes that occurred in the life of man living on the lower San and Łeg in successive epochs: the Stone, Bronze and Iron, and bringing us closer to the daily life of prehistoric inhabitants of our region.
