📍 MSiTJ "Manggha"

About the venue

The "Manggha" Museum of Japanese Art and Technology is a museum in the Dębniki district of Kraków, on the bank of the Vistula. It was opened in 1994 on the initiative of film director Andrzej Wajda; the building was designed by Japanese architect Arata Isozaki. The collection of over 6,500 exhibits — woodblock prints, ceramics, costumes and weapons — is based on the donation of collector Feliks Jasieński, whose nickname "Manggha" gave the museum its name. The museum hosts permanent and temporary exhibitions as well as courses in Japanese language, tea ceremony and ikebana.
