Who says high culture should to be reserved for the upper classes? Many of Kraków's museums and galleries have special days with free admission as part of their weekly opening hours. We’re awesome, so we’ve organised a list of quick links to free culture for each day of the week to ensure you get your money's worth out of those empty pockets; even better, we keep this section consistently updated to help you avoid any awkward exchanges at the ticket counter, or potential chase scenes with security personnel.
While the venues we list under each day of the week typically charge admission other days, those listed under Everyday are our picks for the best free things to do in Kraków that never charge you for entry.
*Note that in the case of some museums, not all temporary exhibits may be free on the day indicated, but one of the main exhibits is, or we wouldn't have listed it.
**Also note that, in addition to most being free for everyone on Sundays, all ten branches of the National Museum in Kraków (MNK) are only 1zł for students (with valid ID) every day of the week.
***Finally, the places listed directly below on this page are not necessarily free today, or all week. It is necessary to click on a category below to sort the results for a particular day of the week.
