The Archaeological Museum in Kraków is a historic museum that was established in 1850. The Archaeological Museum is divided into five major permanent exhibitions, namely: Gods of the Ancient Egypt, Prehistoric Pottery, The Garden of Ceramics, The Prehistory and Early Middle Ages of Lesser Poland, and The Carts of Bronocice. This last exhibition includes the Bronocice Pot (from between 3635 - 3370 BC), which is a ceramic vase with the earliest known image that resembles a wheeled vehicle.

    The Archaeological Museum in Kraków offers a comprehensive look into Poland's rich history. Visitors often praise its extensive collection of artifacts, ranging from prehistoric times to the medieval period. The museum's strengths lie in its Egyptian and Peruvian exhibitions, which are frequently highlighted as standout features. Many reviewers appreciate the well-organized displays and informative descriptions, though some mention that not all information is available in English. The museum's location in a historic building adds to its charm, but a few visitors note that the facility could benefit from modernization. While the museum may not be as flashy as some of Kraków's other attractions, it provides a solid educational experience for those interested in archaeology and ancient history. Some reviewers mention that the museum can be explored in about 2-3 hours, making it a manageable visit. Overall, the Archaeological Museum in Kraków is considered a worthwhile stop for history enthusiasts and those looking to deepen their understanding of Poland's past.
