The National Museum in Kraków is spread across the city: the Main Building, the Sukiennice (Cloth Hall), the Czartoryski Museum, the Arsenał and a string of smaller branches such as the Czapscy, Mehoffer, Wyspiański, Matejko and Szołayscy houses. Buying a ticket for the Main Building, the Cloth Hall or the Czartoryski Museum also gets you into those smaller branches, so one ticket can stretch across a day of walking between them. The Czartoryski Museum works differently from the rest: tickets there are sold for a set day and time, both at the desk and online, so plan around your slot. The smaller branches keep shorter hours than the big ones for most of the week, which matters if you want to save them for the afternoon. Food and drink cannot be brought into or eaten in any museum building, so snack breaks have to happen outside or in one of the cafés in the larger branches.
