Dungeons under Opatów, Underground medieval museum in Opatów, Poland.

The interconnected tunnels span 500 meters across three levels beneath the Market Square, reaching depths of 14.5 meters below street level.

Local merchants constructed these underground chambers during the 14th century to store goods when Opatów became a center of trade routes.

The underground passages contain displays of artifacts and remnants that demonstrate the economic activities of medieval Opatów inhabitants.

Tours through the underground complex last 45 minutes, with temperatures remaining between 8 to 12 degrees Celsius throughout the year.

Researchers from AGH University initiated preservation efforts after discovering that the tunnels caused structural issues in buildings above ground.
