Muzeum Kamienica Orsettich, Jarosław

Orsetti tenement house - one of the monuments of bourgeois architecture in Jarosław.

At first it belonged to Jan Raczkowski, a merchant from Jarosław, and was bought by Stanisław Smiszowic in 1585. In 1633 it was bought by Wilhelm Orsetti from Lucca. In the first half of the 18th century it became the property of the sculptor Tomasz Hutter. Since 1945 it has been the seat of a museum with exhibitions on the town's history and bourgeois culture.

The building contains a great chamber, trousseau stores and two underground storerooms. In 1646 arcades, a first floor and an attic covering the roof were added.

In the interiors there is a partially preserved polychrome from the 17th and 18th centuries. One decorated bracket has been preserved on the first floor.

The great chamber in the back passage has a beamed ceiling and fragments of figural polychrome from the 17th century. There is also a portal from the Renaissance period with Armenian features.
