National Museum

The National Museum in Wroclaw, founded in 1947, occupies the former Silesian provincial government building, a Dutch Neo-Renaissance structure built in 1883-1886 by architect Karl Friedrich Endell. Its holdings of roughly 120,000 objects - paintings, sculpture, drawings and decorative arts from the Middle Ages to today - focus on Silesian and Polish art, including one of Poland's leading collections of 20th-century Polish painting.
