Arsenal, the Museum of Archaeology

Early Baroque building with an interior courtyard. Built at the initiative of King Wladyslaw IV. In the time of the Polish Kingdom, it was the School of Artillery and Engineering Officers. On March 26, 1943, it was a place of the so-called Action near the Arsenal, a heroic act of sabotage of Polish resistance, namely the release from the Gestapo hands of J.Bytnar, pseudonym "Rudy", and other prisoners by Szare Szeregi soldiers (during the Nazi occupation, a military organization of Polish scouts).
