Museum of Science and Industry in Kraków

Museum of Science and Industry in Kraków (Polish: Muzeum Techniczno-Przemysłowe w Krakowie) was a museum in Kraków, Poland. It was established in 1868, at the initiative of Adrian Baraniecki, a Polish physician and social activist. Its name changed in 1920, and again in 1934. The museum was nationalized in 1950, and became part of the National Museum, Kraków. The building presently serves as the library of the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts ("ASP").
