    The employee of the museum looked really aggressive when we arrived - he slammed doors, shouted at us. We don't speak Polish, but we can understand a bit, and he said "You should speak Polish when in Poland". We wanted to see the paintings, but left the museum soon as the atmosphere was so hostile.

    A tad overpriced at 10zl for just a few rooms with classical paintings. Even if you found them interesting the level of engagement you could have here is very small. I did appreciate that they had interactive panels explaining the paintings, their authors and subject matter in English. But to quote just one example: in Cracow there is a museum that takes about three hours to visit and is priced at 15zl, Villanov in Warszawa again same price for about three hours, this was 10zl for 20 minutes

    Truly, haven't been in the museum itself. But the building and atmosphere around is catching. Many terraces offering food and beer, orchestra playing. Nice time to spend warm sunny evening.

    It's not a big museum but with some interesting expositions. From classical paintings to some Scythian stuff.

    The Town Hall in Bialystok was build 1745 ( the central part of the building) and the tower and wings 1755-1761. Now the area near of the town hall is closed for cars and there are some cafe gardens. In the Town Hall there is a museum. After 8 years of its existence, according to the Minister of Arts and Culture directive issued on July 27, 1957 the Regional Museum in Bialystok became converted into a district museum. Bialystok Town hall is not so unique now. It was rebuilt after World War II. The original building was constructed in 1745, here it got few functions: prison, courtroom, marketplace and nowadays – museum of Podlaskie region. The town hall, as almost whole Bialystok’s centre, was badly damaged during World War II.

👍👍 It's great, manicured gardens are worth a visit for sure. Great photo opportunities. I really like the sorrounding park, which is much on a wilder, but well kept side and the moat and the ducks. Definitely worth reading about the history of the place, before paying a visit. It is currently a flagshi...

👍👍 One of the main urban landmarks of the city. It's open during the day, so it's a good spot to start sightseeing. Fun fact: the big red church was added as an extension to the small white church standing side-by-side.
