About Zamek Królewski w Sanoku
Sanok Castle houses a museum in an elevated position close to the historic center. The building allows combining the reading of an old residential seat with art collections, offering an internal program of a different character than the open-air rural museum.
The holdings include icons and works by Zdzisław Beksiński, with themes and languages that demand particular attention. The visit should not be thought of simply as viewing the rooms of a castle: the collections form an important part of the time and interest of the circuit.
Check the exhibitions and allocate time for each chosen subject, rather than trying to see everything between two connections. The market's proximity makes it easy to combine the museum with an urban walk. Photographing the exterior of the building does not substitute for the galleries experience, which should be planned separately.
