    Today, the Collegium Maius is the seat of the University Museum. It is the oldest building of the Jagiellonian University in Krakow.

          The oldest university in Poland and one of the oldest universities in the world. Nicholas Copernicus studied here in 1491-95. Great brick building!

            A great museum where you can see, among other things, the rectors' sceptres. At least 30 years ago there were also a few rooms used by the university for events. It's an incredible feeling to be able to sit here as a student under Gothic vaults. Especially if you come from the rather brutalist university in Bochum...
