Nicolaus Copernicus Museum (Muzeum Mikolaja Kopernika)

In the 16th century, Polish astronomer and priest Nicolaus Copernicus revolutionized astronomy by proposing that the Earth orbits the sun. He spent the latter part of his life in the small town of Frombork, where he lived and worked. Today, the Cathedral Hill in Frombork houses the Nicolaus Copernicus Museum (Muzeum Mikolaja Kopernika). Visitors can explore the museum, which offers a glimpse into Copernicus’s life and work, including the historical context and scientific discoveries that shaped modern astronomy.
