Worth a visit for a peep inside the Town Hall alone, this extraordinary collection over two floors includes glass, porcelain and silver, and the most extensive collection of 18th-century Sarmatian portraits in the country. Two new permanent exhibits have also been added: the Hunter's Armoury and the Sarmatian Armoury. Sarmatism, if you're wondering, was a beguiling infusion of lifestyle, culture and ideology that predominated the Polish nobility from the 17th to 19th century. Based on the mistaken and rather amusing belief that Poles were descended from a loose confederation of ancient Iranian tribes, Polish Sarmatism evolved over the centuries from a set of values based on pacifism into a full-blown warrior philosophy that endorsed horseback riding, outrageous behaviour and a propensity for lavish Oriental clothing and huge, handlebar moustaches. The Town Hall Tower can also be ascended if arranged ahead of time, and offers panoramic views for an extra 10zł.

Admission 8/5zł, family ticket 15zł. Sun free.
