The exhibition presents the valuable items collected in the Treasury and the church’s interior since the town and Entailand have been established – Entailers’ gifts, members of the Chapter, professors of the Zamość Academy, nobility, and the patricians of Zamość

In the years 2018-2019 the building has been thoroughly renovated, and its interior is how housing a multithread exhibition of the history and monuments of the Zamość Cathedral.

The collegiate church was the most important church of the Entailand – the place where each subsequent Entailer was sworn, as well as their final resting place. Through the chronological presentation of the historic monuments, which were for the most part funded by Entailers and their wives, we present the history of the Zamoyski family and the role its members played in the history of Zamość and the Republic of Poland.

The exhibition, apart from thematically grouped items, puts special emphasis on the most important, world class items, such as: Florentine liturgical set funded by Jan Zamoyski in 1601; reliquary housing a scrap of cloth from the Virgin Mary’s garment (beginning of the 17th century), and Marcin Zamoyski’s watch, which is still working despite being manufactured over 300 years ago.

The (as much as possible) chronological layout of the exhibition – from the beginning of the 16th century to the end of the 18th century – allows the audience to track the changes in the form and decoration of arts and crafts items over the centuries.

The south-western part of the Vicar’s House contains a collection of one of Poland’s oldest chapter libraries and a small reading room. The Zamojski Chapter Library was created shortly after the establishment of the Zamość Academy and the Collegiate Chapter in Zamość. From the middle of the 18th century until 1993 its collection has been stored in the former Holy Trinity Chapel at the collegiate church. The collection includes over 2500 old prints (some of which are incunabula), coming from over 100 European publishers.
