EUROPEUM - European Culture Centre, Art museum in Old Town, Kraków, Poland.
EUROPEUM is an art museum in Kraków's Old Town housed in a restored 17th-century building that once served other purposes. The space displays over 100 paintings and sculptures by European artists spanning from medieval times through the modern era.
After World War II, the National Museum took ownership of this building, which then functioned as storage for furniture for many decades. Its conversion into an art museum occurred in 2013 as part of efforts to distribute collections beyond the main institution.
The collection reflects how European art developed across different regions and time periods, allowing visitors to see artistic traditions from various countries side by side. The works on display show connections and differences between creative movements that shaped the continent.
The museum operates on a regular schedule throughout the week with varying hours depending on the day of your visit. Checking opening times before your trip helps you plan your visit and make the most of your time there.
The building itself carries its own story beyond displaying art, reflecting post-war recovery and creative reuse of historical structures. Visitors encounter a former storage facility now reimagined as a cultural space, showing how cities adapt their heritage over time.
