Found it quite boring. My friend and I went on a Tuesday when it was free and afterwards we were pretty glad we didn’t have to pay.

The opening hours for this museum and its subsidiaries are very wrong both as advertised and on this map-many others and I were confused by surprise closing. I recommend staff be less rude about it and update their hours. Thank you!

I never leave reviews, but this place had EXTREMELY RUDE staffs, (yes plural) and RACIST too, especially if you don’t look ‘European’. This place partially ruined my experience/impression of krakow for me! I regret not getting the r.. Read more »ude staffs’ names, it was a guy near the exhibition and people at the ticket office.

Great history for Krakow market Square. Excavation took along time. Bit dark inside the museum. But probably needed for effect.

Firstly getting tickets can be a bit confusing as opposite side of the building but quick enough to sort, you also have to put your bag into storage and they give you a dog with the number on to collect when finished. At first you think it's sma.. Read more »ll and not much but when you properly get exploring it goes for miles. There is a lot of information but not much of it is in English which is a shame, the computers can be changed to English though. I love the fact that if you look up you are under the water fountain in the square.

Very interesting modern museum situated underground the main square in Krakow. It gives a good insight into the history of Krakow. Give yourself at least 2 hours for a visit here.

Loved it. Amazing works they did under the central plaza of the old town. Really get a good feeling of what the old town looked and felt like.

Fascinating to see how they have preserved the ruins found under the Main Square, the photo if the actual dig - which is located on the left as you leave the little restaurant - shows the scale & clever way it was all preserved.
