December 20 of this year marked the long-awaited opening weekend of the Princes Czartoryski Museum - a unique place on the map of Krakow. In one of the oldest museums in Poland, the twenty-six exhibition halls located on two floors feature Leonardo da Vinci's "Lady with an Ermine," Rembrandt van Rijn's "Landscape with a Merciful Samaritan" and a collection of national memorabilia, among others. Architects from the Lewicki Łatak Design Bureau were responsible for the reconstruction of the building on Pijarska Street, while the ART FM studio was responsible for the interior design and exhibition arrangement.
We encourage you to see a photo-report from the vernissage and, of course, to visit the renovated Czartoryski Princes' Palace.
