  The Diocesan Museum
by gosiaPL
 
 

This museum is the oldest of its kind in Poland, founded in 1888. It's most valuable exhibits are the Gothic sculptures and paintings from the Malopolska region (south-east Poland). Another collection has lithurgical robes from as early as the Middle Ages. And if you're interested in folk paintings on glass, the vast collection includes not only Polish items but also those collected by missionaries in Europe and on other continents!

They have some pics on their website but unfortunately not all information is available in English.

The Museum is located in this old building (see picture) as well in the other ones in the tip below.

Open on weekdays 10:00-15:00 and Sun 9:00-14:00, with lunch break at 12:00-13:00. Closed on Mondays.

Address: 6 Katedralny Sq., next to the Cathedral
