The Museum of Warmia and Masuria in Olsztyn was founded in 1945. The institution is seated in a fourteenth-century Gothic castle built for the administrator of the Warmia Chapter?s estates. In the years 1516-1521, this function was performed here by Nicolaus Copernicus. To this day, on the gallery wall there remains a unique memento of his stay - a hand-made experimental astronomical table. 0The exhibition ?At the turn of the epochs. The furniture from the time of Nicolaus Copernicus? presents examples of European furniture - from early Gothic to Renaissance forms - from Italy, France, Germany, Poland and also Scandinavia. Most of the furniture comes from the collections of the National Museum in Warsaw. The exhibition is complemented by paintings and reproductions of graphics depicting furniture, which most of us will not find at the exhibition, because they have survived to our times in a small number. These include, above all, beds, writing and reading desks, seats, shelves, as well as forms of tables and chests, other than those presented at the exhibition. Drawings and paintings reflect the interior architecture and equipment in everyday use.00Exhibition: Muzeum Warmii i Mazur, Olsztyn, Poland (30.06.-01.10.2017).
