Museum of Historical Costume

Fashion of yesteryear: a collection of clothing and accessories from the 19th and 20th centuries presented in a historic building.

This Museum  is the only museum in Poland entirely devoted to the history of clothing, fashion and the craft associated with it. Historical costumes and the history of fashion are an underrated source of information about the past. It can tell us much about the historical structure of the society and its customs. It is also intrinsically linked with the development of the craft and technologies affecting the production of garments. In the Museum of Historical Costume you can admire unique historical pieces of craft, from 18th-century fabrics to extraordinary dressers from the beginning of the 20th century. The exhibition is modified every year. Thanks to this, many different interesting and sometimes surprising subjects related to the history of clothing may be investigated and highlighted.
