• The Archdiocesan Museum - The Archdiocesan Museum in Cracow houses the largest collection, with over 400 exhibits, relating to the person of Karol Wojtyła. These objects come from various periods in the life of the later Polish Pope, beginning with his early years as a priest, through his episcopal ministry in the Archdiocese of Cracow, first as an auxiliary bishop (1958-1964) and then as Archbishop Metropolitan of Cracow (1964-1978), who in 1967 was made a member of the College of Cardinals.

Karol Wojtyla’s collection takes on a special significance in the place where he lived for almost 16 years, first in a modest room at Kanonicza 19 as a priest (1951-1958) and later in the building next door, at Kanonicza 21, as auxiliary bishop and archbishop (1958-1967).
