Ethnographic Museum - attractions for children

Although most of the exhibition is arranged in a fairly standard style, the youngest visitors will find many interesting spots here.

When visiting the museum with children, it's worth using one of the two "ethno-trails," which are guides through the museum specially designed for the youngest visitors (available for a symbolic fee at the museum ticket office). Using them, we will look for special markings in the exhibition:

Children also really enjoy the interactive room dedicated to traditions related to welcoming spring and Easter traditions:

We highly recommend combining a visit to the Ethnographic Museum in Krakow with participating in family activities and workshops, which have a particularly rich offer here!
