Krakow Pinball Museum, Arcade museum and pinball hall in Stradomska Street, Krakow, Poland.
Krakow Pinball Museum is an arcade hall with over 50 pinball machines and around 35 video games housed in a medieval cellar in the city center. The collection spans from early mechanical designs to later electronic systems, offering a hands-on view of gaming evolution.
The collection includes a Race the Clock machine from 1955, representing the earliest era of mechanical pinball entertainment in the post-war period. This machine shows how the industry was just beginning to develop and spread pinball gaming at that time.
The name reflects the enduring appeal of arcade gaming as a form of social entertainment. Visitors can experience firsthand how these machines brought people together for shared moments of play.
The entrance is located on Stradomska Street in the center, easy to find and access. Visitors can choose between single-session tickets for short play periods or all-day passes with in-and-out privileges.
Most machines work through pure mechanics using electromagnets, solenoids, and physical switches rather than modern digital electronics. Players experience genuine technical gameplay where each result comes from real components working together, not hidden programming.
