Description

Discover the Rynek Underground Museum, a time machine that will allow you to explore medieval Kraków. See how Kraków developed, what was important to its citizens, and how the Wieliczka salt mine influenced the economy of the Polish kingdom at that time. Awaiting you are, among other things, ancient waterworks, a crossroads of road routes, a pre-local settlement, a map of distant trade, a reconstruction of 12th-century goldsmith's and blacksmith's workshops, relics of a burnt-down settlement, a model of a 15th-century city and much more. Imagine daily life in Kraków a few centuries ago with this exhibition. You will uncover medieval tools, historical coins, clay figures, decorations, dice and toiletry articles used over 600 years ago, together with the Tartar arrowheads, beads and medallions from the Orient. Use your Museum City Pass to enter this and 39 other attractions in the city. Experience an enriched exhibition with interesting models and multimedia – touchscreens, holograms, projections and documentary films presented in the spaces of the cellars under the Cloth Hall arranged especially for that purpose. Have fun with the whole family, including the kids, in a special playroom and mechanical theatre showing the legend of the bygone Kraków. Available attractions in Krakow Card: 1.
