Thesaurus Cracoviensis - it is an Artefacts Interpretation Center, warehouse and workshop of The Historical Museum of the City of Kraków. What is very special about this new MHK, is its availability to visitors, who will not only be able to see museum collections that have had not been exhibited so far, but will also learn the secrets of preservation of monuments. This very innovative solution in Poland makes it one of few and biggest (as of 2017) studio warehouse opened to the public. Similar, but not identical solutions are used at the Colorado State Museum in Denver, at the Library of Congress Museum in Washington, at the city museum in Antwerp and the Jewish Museum in Vienna.[1]

Is this "Vault" we can see 80% of items that MHK currently posseses (around 150 thousand)which are not on display in any of the branches. Special glass casing with latest fire protection anticorosive and antibacterial standards to protect works of art. Together with unconventional room architecture forms unique place for exhibiting "tresures" of MHK to the open public.[2][3]
