The archaeological open air museum Biskupin is an archaeological site and a life-size model of an Iron a late Bronze Age fortified settlement in Poland.

The original settlement was built in the second half of the 8th century BCE (just around the time when Rome was founded). Dendrochronological studies of construction timber revealed that it was obtained in 747-722 BCE, most of which in the winter of 737 BCE.

Ca. 100 oak and pine log-houses were of similar layout, measuring ca. 8 by 10 metres (26 by 33 feet) each. They consisted of two chambers and an open entrance-area. These houses were designed to accommodate 10–12 persons. An open hearth was located in the centre of the biggest room. There are no larger houses that could indicate social stratification. Because of the damp, boggy ground the streets were covered with wooden planks.
