Hipolitów House in Kraków, Historical residence at Mariacki Square, Kraków, Poland.
Hipolitów House is a historic residence on Mariacki Square with exhibition rooms spread across two floors. The spaces display furniture and objects from various periods of Polish domestic life and design.
The building originated as a residence and took its name from the merchant family Hipolit who lived there in the late 1500s. Over time the structure changed hands and purposes before becoming a museum.
The rooms show how wealthy Kraków residents lived and organized their homes across several centuries. You see authentic furnishings and personal objects that reflect the daily life of these families.
The house sits directly on the Main Market Square in the old town and is easy to reach on foot. Plan to spend about one to two hours walking through the exhibition rooms at a leisurely pace.
Each room displays a complete interior arrangement from a specific period rather than just scattered furniture or decorative objects. This approach helps visitors understand what spaces actually looked like and how they functioned in daily life.
