The Museum of Contemporary Art in Kraków is a contemporary art gallery about 2 miles (3 km) from the city center, built on a demolished part of Oskar Schindler's factory. Claudio Nardi designed it, and the article says it was inspired by neomodern architecture. The infobox gives 2010 as its establishment, and the text says it opened on May 19, 2011. The article gives no construction dates, materials or street address.

The exhibition area is 4,000 square meters, and the whole museum covers 10,000. The permanent exhibition is on the first floor and temporary shows are on the second. A library, bookshop, café and a conservation laboratory are inside. Estimated cost was 70 million zloty, co-financed from European Union funds.

It aims to present and support contemporary art, especially from the last two decades. Masza Potocka directed it from 2010 to 2024. The article gives no hours.
