About

The Stained Glass Museum in Kraków is a beautifully preserved workshop and gallery that brings the art of stained glass to life in a way few places can match. Founded in 1902 and still operating as a working studio, it offers visitors a rare chance to step behind the scenes and witness traditional craftsmanship in action. As you move through its atmospheric interiors, artisans can often be seen cutting glass, mixing pigments, and assembling intricate panels using techniques unchanged for more than a century. The museum’s exhibitions showcase both historic masterpieces and contemporary designs, highlighting the richness of Polish stained‑glass heritage and its role in decorating churches, public buildings, and private homes. Guided tours reveal the creative process from initial sketch to finished window, offering insight into the precision and artistry required. Intimate, inspiring, and full of colour, the Stained Glass Museum provides a unique cultural experience that blends history, artistry, and living tradition.
