The museum (really an art gallery) has a wonderful collection of paintings, sculptures, and depictions of the passion of the Christ. It houses several of Poland's most known paintings. Jan Matejko's Stańczyk painting depicts a famous jester to the Polish royalty in despair after Lithuania lost the city of Smolensk to Russia in 1514. The highlight is a gallery devoted to 1961–1964 excavations from Faras (previously Pachoras), modern Sudan.
