Tenement house at ul. Kościelna 7 (formerly Rynek 2), where the Museum operates, was built around 1870. On the side of the square there was a Bałamuth shop with technical articles, Adolf Zadora's bindery was operating in the backyard, while the apartments on the first floor were rented by tenants. In 1919, Karol Wojtyła and his wife Emilia née Kaczorowska, together with their 13-year-old son Edmund, lived in this house. A year later, Karol Józef Wojtyła, the future Pope, was born in the apartment, which is today the heart of the Museum.
The first museum in the tenement house was established in 1984. Its originators were: the catechist of the Holy Father for many years and the parish priest of Wadowice, Fr. Edward Zacher and Fr. Cardinal Franciszek Macharski. The museum, initially run by the Sisters of Nazareth, was thoroughly rebuilt and reopened in 2014 as the Family Home Museum of the Holy Father John Paul II in Wadowice.
