Nearly 5,000 works of art in six galleries and only 80 minutes to see it all? Don’t worry; we’ve got it covered! During our museum tour, we’ll show you the greatest hits: the most famous, valuable, beloved, and surprising pieces in our collection! Together, we’ll search for the oldest object in the Gallery of Ancient Art, try to figure out how much an Egyptian tomb’s false door weighs, and look deep into the eyes of the Nubian Mona Lisa! There’ll be plenty of big names, like Botticelli, and delightful Polish design icons. And, of course, the opportunity to take a group photo in front of the museum’s largest painting, Battle of Grunwald, by Polish painter Jan Matejko.
