Gallery of Ancient Art [Arsenał - Galeria Sztuki Starożytnej]

This small branch of the National Museum is also a satellite of the Czartoryski Museum across the street, and brings together three unique collections of ancient art amassed abroad during the 19th and 20th centuries by the Czartoryski family, the Potocki family of Krzeszowice and the Kraków National Museum. On display are artefacts primarily from ancient Egypt, Greece and Rome dating from between 3000 BC to the 7th century AD, with highlights including marble sculptures, Egyptian sarcophagi and animal mummies. It's amazing that these items found their way to Kraków and they provide an interesting look at the material culture of the ancient world, but are hardly required viewing for those without a special interest in antiquity.

Admission 6/3zł, familly ticket 12zł.
