Stary Wiśnicz 278, Nowy Wiśnicz
Koryznówka is a nineteenth-century wooden manor in Stary Wiśnicz, close to the castle of the Kmita and Lubomirski families. It belonged to the Serafiński family, friends of Jan Matejko, and has survived almost unchanged. Since 1981 it has housed a museum of the painter's memorabilia, a branch of the District Museum in Tarnów.
The painter was a regular guest here — it was in Wiśnicz that he spent his engagement to Teodora, the sister of the lady of the house. Many drawings of local architecture and caricatures were created here, the lesser known, private side of his work. The collection consists of family keepsakes, documents and works on paper.
The museum has been closed to visitors since November 2023 until further notice, so check the current announcement of the District Museum in Tarnów before setting off. The surroundings — the historic manor, its garden and the nearby castle in Nowy Wiśnicz — remain an attractive stop.
