About

Hidden away in a 15th-century cellar, the Kraków Pinball Museum is dedicated to pinball machines and arcade games. Inside there are dozens of machines, more than 50 of which are flippers and 35 video games. This interactive museum offers a unique and varied collection and a hefty dose of nostalgia.

The museum's oldest machine is Race the Clock, which dates back to 1955. Their most recent is a Guardians of the Galaxy pinball machine dates back less than a decade and comes complete with LCDs and the latest flippers.

Because this is an interactive exhibit, you can play each and every machine without having to pop a coin in a slot.
