Silesian Art of the 12th—16th Centuries

The exhibition consists of two parts - Silesian Stone Sculpture of 12th-16th century, which is now being rearranged and will reopen later this year, and Silesian Art of 14th-16th century, which is presented on the first floor of the Museum. The display of medieval stone sculpture accumulates mainly sculptures originated as architectural decoration and funerary monuments. Particularly noteworthy are: dated to the 12th century Romanesque tympanum (probably from the portal of the Benedictine Ołbin Abbey) and tombs of Silesian princes from the Piast dynasty, among others one of the most precious works of Gothic art in Poland, the sarcophagus of Duke Henry IV Probus of Wrocław (d. 1290), with preserved rich polychromy.
