Stanisław Wyspiański Museum

Housed in a centuries-old granary, this oft-overlooked museum holds the National Museum's collection of works by Stanisław Wyspiański (1869–1907), the painter, playwright and stained-glass maestro responsible for some of the most striking pieces in Kraków's churches. On display are around 100 of his works, from portraits and designs to sketches and personal books. The exhibits rotate frequently, giving an intimate glimpse into the artist's life.

Step into the garden out back to admire the creeper-clad wall and the lapidarium.
