The national museum in Warsaw is one of Polands biggest and most important. The construction works started in 1926, and had its focus on an architecture of the New Sobriety.

“Muzeum Narodowe” is the official name of the museum in Polish language. The pride of Warsaws national museum is a collection of paintings from famous artists like Rembrandt, Leonardo da Vinci, Jacob Jordaens, and Lukas Cranach.

Mediaeval craftsmanship is another important part of the museum. Outstanding carve and stonecutter works from Silesian artists can be seen. Also different collections of coins displace the visitors in sceptical astonishment.
