This outstanding museum showcasing some of the more interesting aspects of the life and times of the city and its people is divided into two main sections. You can wander the well conceived rooms on three floors including a superb recreation of house interiors of the middle and upper classes from 20, 50 and 100 years ago. The other main exhibit "From prehistory to modern times", features two bourgeois tenement houses that present everyday life and festivities from previous centuries. All descriptions are in English and the films also have English subtitles. One of the best museums in southern Poland, temporary exhibit info can be found on the museum's website: www.mhk.katowice.pl
