Krakow Within Your Reach

In the beautifully restored cellars of the Bishop Erazm Ciołek Palace, visitors can admire 800 fragments of the most valuable architectural sculptures from all over Poland, originating from such places as St. Mary's Church, Krakow Cathedral or Gniezno Cathedral. The exhibits include original stone elements or plaster casts of sculptures – from portals, keystones and royal tombs. Usually these sculptures – a testimony to a nearly thousand years of history of architecture in Poland - are difficult to inspect closely because of their inaccessible location.
