Villa Irmgard
Welcome to
Villa Irmgard
Richly decorated with Art Nouveau elements, not only the exterior of the villa has been preserved in its original form. The interior also breathes the spirit of bygone times. The inventory is contemporary history you can touch. But the small museum not only houses Wilhelminian and Art Nouveau antiques. It is also a very modern place that invites you to special events, concerts, readings, lectures, film screenings and small theater performances. Changing exhibitions always attract art lovers to the first floor. In summer, the villa's garden is filled with music. When it gets uncomfortable and stormy outside, the cozy candlelight concerts are very popular.
AND YET AND DESPITE ALL THIS, ONE DAY PEOPLE WILL CAN'T HOW BROTHERS LIVE

Maxim Gorky
On the massive desk an open notebook, full of thoughts, ideas, visions, right next door there is a cozy sofa in an Art Nouveau alcove, soft piano cascades trickle down the old, crooked wooden staircase from the first floor - the two-storey Villa Irmgard kidnaps its visitors a journey through time into the life of one of the most famous Russian writers of the early 20th century. Maxim Gorki lived and worked here for several months in 1922 and recovered from a serious illness in the fresh Baltic Sea air. He loved the sound of the waves and the silence of the surrounding forests. Here, in the Villa Irmgard, he received Alexei Tolstoy and other famous friends and wrote his autobiography “My Universities”. And even today, the former living quarters look as if the passionate writer was about to enter through the glass patio door.

"Ghosts of the Night Forest"
In Krzysztof Chomicz's exhibition, we are immersed in an extraordinary, mysterious world of wild nature, where wolves and owls take center stage – animals that have inspired respect and fascination for centuries. Chomicz's photographs depict wolves – symbols of strength, freedom, and pristine nature – as well as owls, considered birds of wisdom and nocturnal hunting. With exceptional patience and a keen eye, the artist captures their presence both in the stillness of night and in the light of day. These unique images were taken not only on the islands of Wolin, Usedom, and Karsibór, but also in the wider region of West Pomerania – a land rich in forests, marshes, and coastal landscapes that provide natural habitats for these extraordinary animals. Each photograph allows the viewer to sense an atmosphere of mystery, suspense, and the hidden beauty of nature.
The exhibition will remain in the villa until February 28, 2026.
