The World Turned Upside Down

"Positioned at the foot of a mountain, this trippy home highlights the symbolic inversions of communist rule in Poland by literally turning an entire house on its head. Built in 2007, this tourist trap/political statement is like a mystery house with an anti-communist bend. The upside down house is essentially a fully furnished home like any other, but took much longer than normal to build as workers kept becoming disoriented, forcing them to stop work. It wasn’t even built simply upside down, but on a tilt as well, essentially eliminating the comfort of a reliable, flat surface.  Visitors have to climb into the house though one of the attic windows, but once inside, they are able to take a stroll through the house on the ceiling. The interior is decked out in furnishings from the 1970s, when Poland was under Communist rule. There is even an old television that blares vintage propaganda. It’s touches like this where the strange attraction’s true message, designed by the project’s patron Daniel Czapiewski, becomes clear: life in Communist Poland turned the world upside down.  Whether you’re interested in the political message or you just want to make yourself dizzy walking through an upside down house, this place has got you covered. Either way, bring dramamine." - ATLAS_OBSCURA

Beautiful place to visit , the prices are pretty expensive thought. Big free parking People with babies I would suggest a harness and not a pushchair as it’s kind of rocky and not straight pavement. There are few restaurants and a kids park. Zip line purchase separately at 25zl Entrance 47zl per person under 6 go free.

We mistakenly thought this was a large outdoor museum but it's relatively small and you can't go in all the houses. It's an interesting way to spend 45 mins to an hour and is not expensive. There's also plenty of parking. There seemed to be a couple of restaurants but they weren't open in early April. We drove from Gdansk thinking we would be there hours, but never mind, the scenery around the park was nice.

It was fun! Loved seeing the long boards and upside down house. It was educational seeing the Syberian barracks, and various other examples of wood houses.

Not disabled friendly at all, all the paths are uneven bumpy and lots of hills and stairs. Not the place to come if you struggle with your mobility or using a mobility scooter.

We visited this place for the second time. It is still very interesting but we were very disappointed that most of the buildings were closed! In MAY! It was totally unacceptable to pay full price and get only 30% of buildings open.

A very interesting "gravity defying" piece of architecture and construction work. A must visit place in the outskirts of Gdansk through a very scenic road . Everything inside & outside the house is upside down. Some people find get a bit dizzy after some time inside the house as human brain could take a bit of time to get adjusted to this unusual place. I had too much fun. There are basically 2 floors inside the house and one can go to both levels. Some interesting paintings are in the "second " floor. Good place for photography too.

Nice skansen in heart of Kashebe region. Szymbork. Where you find a houses from 7 centuries back. Included a upside down home that entry is not for fainthearted. But I do highly recommend.
