Museum of Ethnography & Archaeology

TIME : 2016/2/18 23:18:16

Forever with its eye on the former market place of Plac Wolności (Liberty Sq) is the Museum of Ethnography & Archaeology . Most displays are fairly standard, featuring archaeological finds from the Stone Age to the Middle Ages, but the money collection on the 1st floor is worthy of note – as late as 1991 the government was still producing 1,000,000zł bills. The bridal party on the top floor is by far the most engaging ethnography display, with the groom dressed in spiffy orange-and-green pants and the bride weighed down by a heavy headdress of flowers.
