Underground museum

The Rynek Underground exhibition presents not only Krakow’s rich history, but also the connections between the city and mediaeval Europe’s chief centres of trade and culture. Moreover, it portrays the significance of the capital of Poland in the operation of the Hanseatic League. The real historical objects on display, just to mention 14th-century coins, decorations, and pottery, are proof of the European cultural and trade exchange that continued here incessantly for hundreds of years. The tourist route under the Main Market Square leads between the stone and brick walls of the cellars of former trading sites, including the Kramy Bolesławowe Stalls, Kramy Bogate Stalls, the Great Scales, and the Cloth Hall. Opening hours: Winter season (November – March) Monday, Wednesday - Sunday 10.00-20.00 Tuesday 10.00-16.00 Summer season (April – October) Monday 10.00-20.00 Wednesday - Sunday 10.00-22.00 Tuesday 10.00-16.00 Exhibition is closed on every second Monday of the month.

Interesting museum under the square
Very interesting museum. Great for a rainy day. You have to buy tickets at the office on the other side of the cloth hall and not at the museum entrance which is a bit confusing. I took off a star because the low lighting made it really difficult to read the information boards. Otherwise allow a good hour or so to spend here.

Highly recommend
I really, really enjoyed this museum. If it wasn’t because the low lighting makes it hard to read the signs sometimes, I would’ve given it 5 stars. It’s super informative, both for adults and kids, with exhibits and displays throughout, photographs of the archeological process, and a lot of videos to explore at the end. I gave myself too little time to see the whole place which turned out to be much larger than expected. I think 2-3 hours would be the right amount of time to see most of the museum.
