On Thursday, the Swedes took us to places that are worth seeing, while being in the region.
We were warmly welcomed in Aguélimuseet (museum of Ivan Aguéli), which perpetuates the memory of his patron - the modernist painter from Sala. The gallery presents mainly, but not only, contemporary Scandinavian art. It is also a center of culture, interested in cooperation and development.
More information about the museum can be found at this address: http://aguelimuseet.sala.se/
We spent lunch with professor Jerzy Leppert by the huge Swedish lake.
Sala is famous for its silver mines, whose history dates to the early sixteenth century. Underground we experienced severe labor conditions: cold, damp, dark and smell of kerosene. For the encouragement there was also coffee and a singing guide. But we will come back to Wroclaw with a 'silver rush'.

The tight schedule of the fourth day eded with a ball-masquerade, to which we were invited by students finishing the summer semester in Tärna
folkhögskola.
