I visited the Museum of Architecture in the mid-afternoon and was pleasantly surprised to find that entry is free and includes a complimentary audio guide. The receptionist, who spoke excellent English, patiently explained how to use the guide. Despite being free, the museum offers a fantastic experience. The audio guide takes you through architectural history in a clear and engaging way, and the temporary exhibition added even more interest to our visit. This was definitely a worthwhile stop on our Wroclaw trip.
The entry is a bit hard to find , too discreet - on the side of the park towards city center. There are temporary exhibitions and a permanent one. Some parts are interactive, fun for kids and adults alike. The other exhibitions are also valuable. We appreciated the thoroughly documented exhibition on Black sea architecture, very good ! The ticket is cheap.
It was amazing experience to visit this museum! We were able to enter with a dog, it’s great 👍 However the most important is the building of museum itself, its historical and gorgeous! You’ll see a lot of different expositions on different topics about architecture and urbanism. I recommend you to visit Museum of Architecture as soon as possible 💗
I was in two minds about visiting, but I am really glad I did. Not only did we turn up on the day when it was free, it was also super-interesting. The permanent collection is really I suspect a catalogue of bits and pieces that were left over from the rubble when the city was being rebuilt. So there will be, for example, a cabinet of door handles, or stained glass, or heating stoves showing the different styles between the middle ages and about art deco. When we went there was also a temporary exhibition about a futuristic architect from the 60s who based his designs around geometric shapes, which was the perfect accompaniment.
The museum is in the church building. It wouldn't take many time to observe it. The interesting part was the possibility to see from very short distance the details of construction of the old buildings. Also there were many old ceramic and metal stoves. If you have some time and already visited main museums, it's good to visit this one as well.
