	Museum of Folk Architecture and Ethnographic Park in Olsztynek as an Example of Inconvenient Cultural ­Heritage

	Olsztynek is a small town in the area of so called Regained Territories, which used to belong to Eastern Prussia before the end of world war II. Most of the residents of the municipality settled there after 1945 year occupying houses displaced Mazurians and Germans. The Museum of Folk Architecture was founded by people, who used to live in Prussia before war. Its aim was to present variety of folk architecture styles of Prussia.
	The purpose of this article is to present the past of the Museum in favor of the fact, that we can talk about it as an inconvenient relic of history. This paper is based on historical sources, like archival documents and literature, as well as ethnographic research, which I conducted in the municipality of Olsztynek in 2015 year. My main question was to describe memories, information and feelings, which come to minds of the informers when they think about open-air museum in Olsztynek, through what I wanted to examine residents attitude to museum. Many of the results were significantly different from that I assumed in the beginning, what It proved to be very valuable for further research.
