Przypkowscy Clock Museum

The museum exhibits a collection of over 1,500 timepieces ranging from early sundials to modern mechanical clocks, displayed across multiple exhibition halls.

The institution originated from Feliks Przypkowski's private collection of sundials and astronomical instruments, which opened to the public in 1909 before becoming state-operated in 1962.

Each floor of the museum presents different timekeeping methods from various historical periods, reflecting technological advancements and societal changes in time measurement.

The museum maintains regular opening hours from Tuesday through Sunday, with guided tours available in Polish and English for groups of minimum five persons.

The collection ranks third worldwide in size and value, positioned after Chicago Planetarium and Oxford's Museum of the History of Science.
