GUIDED TOURS / Beautiful and Practical: The Gallery of Polish Design
2026-08-01 / 13:00
1st August / Saturday / 1.00 pm (CET)
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 online and at the ticket office starting 21rd July
Date: August 1st / Saturday / 1.00pm (CET)
