The museum has a historical and regional character. Particularly noteworthy are: the collection of postcards with views of the city from the Galician and interwar period, paintings and sculptures by artists associated with Wadowice, works of folk artists, among others. Jędrzej Wowry, and the works of young artists from Wadowice. Thanks to multimedia exhibitions, we will see how Wadowice functioned in the interwar period and we will take a look at the local market, which was teeming with life as an important commercial centre.

The Wadowice City Museum takes visitors on an exciting journey through time. The city during the Galician and interwar period is well-illustrated through a collection of postcards. And, thanks to multimedia exhibitions, everyone can go back in time to Wadowice during the interwar period, take a look at the market square, an important trading centre that bustled with life. Another presentation provides an opportunity to learn about the history of the 'Sokół' ('Falcon') Gymnastic Society and other cultural and social organisations of the first half of the 20th century. A recreated schoolroom from the early 20th century allows you to imagine what learning was like at that time. You can learn about the history of local education, try your hand at calligraphy, print a document of your own on a 19^th-century printing press, or try on a turn-of-the-century outfit. There is also an opportunity to practice the old methods of writing or counting. In one of the rooms you will feel the atmosphere of an apartment and touch furniture that is typical of the early 20th century. An album of Wadowice residents is laid out on a table, and excerpts from pre-war broadcasts can be heard from an old radio. Finally, in the photo atelier you can have your picture taken in period costume. The Municipal Museum in Wadowice also commemorates the Jews of Wadowice. Particularly noteworthy are paintings and sculptures by artists associated with Wadowice, works by folk artists including Jędrzej Wowra, and works by young Wadowice artists.
