Musée ethnographique
The collection of the Ethnographic Museum in Kraków is the largest and oldest ethnographic collection in Poland. It is an intriguing mix of everyday objects, working tools, toys, works of art, objects of worship and magic, photographs, manuscripts, drawings, and sounds. One can recognize in their testimonies of life, evidence of ingenuity and craftsmanship, a wealth of materials: wood, metals, paper, plastic, textiles, minerals, clay, parts of plants, and animals. In various ways, the collection allows you to find out what the world is made of and how man tries to cope with it.
The core of the collection consists of objects from pre-war and present-day Poland. No less important and valuable are collections from other countries and other parts of the world (including the world's oldest Siberian collection, and collections from Asia, America, Oceania, and Africa).
