Warsaw

Museum of Caricature & Cartoon Art

  ul. Kozia 11 ,   Old Town          (+48) 22 827 88 95     12 Jan 2024
This obscure little museum offers a rich diversion for those interested in comics, cartoons, 'the funny papers' and any odd or humourous illustrations. Named after its founder and the first director, the Polish satirist and caricaturist Eryk Lipiński, the collection dates back to 1978 and today includes over 25,000 drawings, paintings, posters and sculptures - some dating all the way back to the 18th century. Of course the contemporary stuff is the funniest, and the collection includes many foreign artists as well as Polish ones. Conveniently located in the Old Town, this is about as niche as it gets, and 'The Guardian' named it one of the ‘10 Best Museums in Europe You've Probably Never Heard Of.' Fans of the Polish periodical 'Przekrój', especially those who only read the comics, will love it and recognise a lot of the artists.

Average visiting time: 1hr.
