The museum, opened in 1990, is housed in a restored pre-war villa "Polonia", a wooden building with stylish architectural and sculptural elements of the facade, as well as wooden stairs inside and cast-iron details. The building also has the "Zielona" Art Gallery. The museum gathered 3831 exhibits in the field of art, archeology, ethnography, history, military and numismatics, ending with World War II and collections dedicated to prisoners of German concentration camps and Soviet labor camps. The facility has the following permanent exhibitions: "History of the City of Busko, spa and Busko Land", "Busko and Busko Land in painting, graphics and sculpture", "Martyrology of the Busko City", "Busko and Busko Land Residents - prisoners of concentration camps and Soviet labor camps" , exhibition of memorabilia of Krystyna Jamroz - a famous opera singer and other people distinguished for Busko and national culture, and an exhibition of archaeological findings from the area of ​​the Busko City and Commune and the surrounding area. The museum also offers visiting temporary exhibitions. During the Nazi occupation, the Museum building housed the security police and a summary court. Torture was carried out in the rooms on the first floor. In the yard adjacent to the building, cages with specially trained dogs were placed, which tore apart bodies of battered, but still alive, prisoners. Villa "Polonia" is therefore also a monument to the struggle and martyrdom of Poles. The museum is open all year, from Tuesday to Friday.
