Metamorphism is a set of processes that cause a change in the mineral composition and structure and texture of rocks, usually occurring in the deeper levels of the Earth's crust, under the influence of changes in physical and chemical conditions such as pressure or temperature. Due to geological conditions and the extent of occurrence, several types of metamorphism can be distinguished. These are described in detail in the exhibition "Metamorphism"
Exhibition "Magmatism"
Magmatism is the totality of processes involved in magma formation, movement and transformation. These processes occur either deep within the Earth (plutonism) or at or near the surface (volcanism). These phenomena are described in the exhibition 'Magmatism'.
Exhibition "Mineral Raw Materials of Poland"
In the pursuit of his life's needs, man makes use of mineral resources. Each stage in the development of mankind is associated with new discoveries and inventions, which directly or indirectly rely on the earth's riches.

Exhibition "Biblia Pauperum"
A peasant's interpretation of the Bible combined with a folk understanding of the world yields extremely creative imagery. In the exhibition, you will learn why it rains when a spider is killed, why a swallow has red feathers on its head and why a stork eats frogs. A reflection of these beliefs, as well as religious practices, is the colourful but simple in form non-professional, folk and art-brut art.
