Museum of Bells & Pipes

Carpathian Mountains


This curious museum, housed in an 18th-century baroque clock tower, contains vintage bells as well as elaborately carved wooden and meerschaum pipes and cigar cutters (items that Przemyśl has long been famous for manufacturing). The rooftop affords a panoramic view of the town.
