Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: The Emeryk Hutten-Czapski Museum (also The Czapski Museum) is a branch of the National Museum of Kraków. Count Emeryk Hutten-Czapski, (born 17 October 1828 in Stankow near Minsk, died 23 July 1896 in Kraków) was a Vice-Governor of St Petersburg and an important collector of books, prints, and numismatics. He built his collection at his family estate in Stankow, today in Belarus. Fearing for the safety of the collection, being close to Russia, he moved the collection to Kraków. In 1894, he purchased a nineteenth century palace, on what is today 12 Pilsudski Street, and built an extension to house his collection. He personally catalogued the collection but died before the extension was completed. His wife, Baroness Elzbieta Meyendorff, completed the construction of the extension, and in 1904, as per her husband´s request, donated the collection to the city of Kraków. The museum displays the Czapski crest on the outside, along with the inscription on the pediment: "Monumentis Patriae Naufragio Ereptis" (Patriotic Monuments Saved from the Destruction of the Storm).
