Archaeological Museum (Muzeum Archeologiczne)

Housed in the beautiful 16th-century Górka Palace, Poznań’s Archaeology Museum contains a collection of 42,000 rare and mystifying objects that chart life in Ancient Egypt and prehistoric Poland. The first part of the museum takes you through the earliest settlements in the region, with life-sized figures as well as miniature dioramas depicting life from the Stone Age to the Iron Age. The other permanent exhibit, 'Death and Life in Ancient Egypt,' features 120 rare pieces, from a granite obelisk of Rameses II to the mummified remains of a woman named 'Hat.'
