Muzeum Okręgowe w Koninie
The Konin museum is most interesting and well worth a visit if you are in the area. The museum has two distinct sections: the first is dedicated to an excellent example of a straight - tusked elephant found by workers at the local open cut coal mine. The elephant is one of the largest elephant species with a shoulder height of around 4 metres. The earliest record of the elephant in Europe is 800,000 - 700,000 years ago. The second section is a well restored 15th century castle on the shores of Lake Goslawice. You could easily spend half a day looking around the museum.
