Fawley Court

This stately home, designed by Sir Christopher Wren, apart from its other functions, has also become a repository for many private collections of Polish families and clergy, and today thanks to the care shown by the Marian Fathers and many volunteers, Fawley Court has a museum and library that boast unique examples of the achievements of a great European civilisation.

Collection includes many exhibits from various periods, starting from a collection of religious paintings, through valuable manuscripts, parchments and incunabula, old writings, Papal and Polish historical documents, rare old maps, pictures and prints from 19th and 20th centuries, portraits of Polish Kings and heroes. Among them is the original Laski's Code of Laws dating back to 1506, several documents bearing royal seals and a 16th century Bible printed for Prince Radziwill. Of particular note is the collection of European, Far and Middle Eastern militaria and arms, donated to the museum by major Witold Buchowski and
