The Kurpian Open Air Museum in Nowogród was opened on June 19, 1927 as the Kurpian Museum. It belongs to the two oldest museums of folk architecture in Poland. The collection of about 3,000 exhibits came mainly from Adam Chętnik's private funds and was related to the Green Kurpiowska Forest. During World War II, the museum, like all of Novgorod, was destroyed. Only two stumps of several hundred-year-old beehive trees and a gate made of pine trunks, which was the entrance to the then museum from the river side, have survived.

The open-air museum is beautifully set up in the forest on the edge of the Narew.
