Tarnów District Museum

Tarnów District Museum, Local museum in Market Square, Tarnów, Poland.

The Tarnów District Museum is housed in a stately building on the town's central square and displays regional collections across several exhibition areas. The galleries feature archaeological finds, historical objects, and specialized exhibitions that explore different aspects of local history.

The museum was founded on 13 January 1927, when Tarnów's city council unanimously approved a proposal by deputy mayor Józef Jakubowski. It opened at 12 Krakowska Street with the city archive, deposits from craft guilds and public donations. In 1949 it was taken over by the state, and on 10 February 1976 it became the Muzeum Okręgowe w Tarnowie. On 23 January 2024 it was renamed Muzeum Ziemi Tarnowskiej.

The institution changed its name from Muzeum Okręgowe w Tarnowie to Muzeum Ziemi Tarnowskiej on 23 January 2024, after operating under the district name since 10 February 1976. Its first exhibition, opened on 16 June 1929, showed 80 paintings by Tarnów artists Józef Dutkiewicz, Tadeusz Jelenia and Irena Serda-Zbigniewiczowa.

The museum is spread across a main site in Kamienica Rosowska at Rynek 3, opened in 2013, and branches elsewhere in Tarnów and the surrounding districts. The History of Tarnów and the Region branch occupies the townhouses at Rynek 20-21, while the Panorama Gallery is in the railway station building at Plac Dworcowy 4. Plan visits around which branch you want to see.

The museum's name changed on 23 January 2024 from Muzeum Okręgowe w Tarnowie to Muzeum Ziemi Tarnowskiej, reflecting its wider regional scope across Tarnów and the tarnowski, brzeski, bocheński and dąbrowski districts. Its first home in 1927 was a townhouse at Krakowska 12, and the core of the early collection was the municipal archive together with deposits from craft guilds.
