Outstanding Museums in Krakow

Outstanding Museums in Krakow, Krakow, Poland (B)

Krakow has so many good museums! Every exhibition I saw in Krakow seriously impressed me with its high standards. I knew little about the city and about Polish culture before visiting, but Krakow’s museums make the learning experience fascinating.

It’s the clever curation, the multimedia displays, the convenient explanations in English and the beautiful aesthetics that really make a world of difference.

Here’s my selection of the best museums to learn about the history, art and culture of Krakow and Poland.

I’m so glad I came across this wonderful museum.

Along the corridor are detailed models of old buildings.
