Perhaps the sweetest docents in the world guide tours (in Polish) through a fine and surprisingly large collection of Silesian Gothic-era sacral art. There are two galleries, the first of which, on the ground floor, hosts rotating modern exhibits, while the main gallery upstairs has the permanent exhibition, including wooden sculptures of Madonna, female saints, Christ and others, several restored and original triptychs as well as articles used by churches in the region. Look for the museum sign and entrance below street level behind the Curia building near Christ the King Cathedral. During opening hours visitors may need to rap on the gated door to gain entrance as it usually receives few tourists, especially on Sundays.
Admission free. Donations welcome.
