Muzeum Stanisława Wyspiańskiego
Kraków's Old Granary, a building erected in the 18th century outside the city walls, belonged to the Wielopolski family, then to the Jabłonowski family, and in 1905 it came under the city’s administration. It served various functions: as a granary, a carriage factory, a warehouse, a dairy, a shop, and during the Second Republic as the seat of the Association of Architects of the Republic. After 1945, it was taken over by the National Museum in Krakow and became a storehouse for works of art for many years.
Since 2021, the Granary has housed the Stanisław Wyspiański Museum: an exhibition space and a place for research into the biography, works and artistic techniques of one of Poland's most outstanding and versatile artists – playwright, poet, painter, graphic artist, theatre reformer and interior designer. The National Museum in Krakow holds the largest collection of Stanisław Wyspiański's works in Poland, comprising over 1,100 objects. The most important are portrait and landscape paintings, as well as a set of designs for decorating Krakow's churches and public buildings: the Franciscan Church, Wawel Cathedral and the Medical Association House. The collection also includes drawings, textiles, furniture, sculptures, engravings and art books. The outstanding and unique character of these collections is presented on the three floors of the Granary: the ground floor, first floor and basement.
