Town Hall in the Market SquareAlthough I have been to Tarnów before, I had not toured the city. Five years ago, I had some client research that needed to bedone in the Diocesan Archives & there was no time for seeing the sights. This year, I wanted to take the time...
I had the opportunity to do some research in the Diocesan Archives of Tarnów when I was in Poland.
The process is simple... you must sign in the "guest book" and then if you have not been to the archives before, you will need to purchase a researchers id card which is good for that calendar year. Of course you must present some identification which for the foreigner would be your passport.
If I recall correctly it cost about 15 złoty which is roughly about $5 give or take depending on the exchange rate. Research time costs 6 złoty per hour.
The Archive is open Monday thru Friday 9 am to 3pm with a break for lunch from noon to 1pm. On Saturdays it is open for only 3 hours from 9am to noon.
We have 89 guests and no members online
