Finally it is possible to access one of the pearl of Krakow historical and current artistic life, in a superb century old building (kamienica type), with original furniture and great atmosphere (jazz music in the lovely cafe-gallery;). The workshop is a live museum, where one can actually observe how stained glass is made.

Unique original pieces are kept in the workshop exhibition spaces. rich also of spectacular contemporary pieces realised by the present stained glass masters. The tour is guided, in Polish and English (other language by appointment) If you get way too intrigued by this century-old technique, you can also sign up for a practical lesson of stain glass making with the masters;) A charming experience check the website: muzeumwitrazu.pl/?lang=en
