GUIDED TOURS / Beautiful and Practical: The Gallery of Polish Design / Guided tour in English

2025-10-11 / 13:00

Saturday / 1pm

tour guide: Romualda Radwańska

 

This is likely the only gallery in the museum where you will see everyday objects and furnishings that may look familiar! During this tour, we’ll explore lesser-known pieces in the Zakopane Style from the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, discover 20th-century icons of Polish design, and discover pieces by contemporary young and up-and-coming Polish designers. The museum’s newest gallery presents beautifully designed mass-produced objects, such as televisions, radios, household appliances, textiles and furniture, and designs, models and prototypes that never made it to production.
Tickets will be available at the ticket office and online starting 30th of September.
