The archaeological collection at the Castle Museum in Oświęcim consists of monuments acquired within the framework of archaeological research, as well as loose finds discovered accidentally. So far, the oldest stone relic in the Museum’s collection remains the flint of Świder’s culture from the Stone Age. It was found in the course of research carried out at the Church of Our Lady Help of Christians in Oświęcim. The next epoch is represented by a hatchet from the Hallstatt period or a Scythian arrowhead. The most numerous group are relics from the Middle Ages. Among the relics from archaeological research, the majority is so called mass material in the form of fragments of ceramics, such as finds from Castle Hill or the Market Square in Oświęcim. Archaeological findings also include tiles, nails and architectural details that are associated with settlement in the area of the current city of Oświęcim that has continued since the early Middle Ages. Hoes or hatchets refer to the everyday life of the inhabitants. The weapon represents a collection of arrowheads and axes, including a specimen from the 11th century, as well as cannonballs, bullets and flint pistol related to firearms. A valuable relic is a sword dating back to the late Middle Ages, found on Castle Hill. Luckily, a Gothic tombstone by Mikołaj Myszkowski was also discovered. The work of sepulchral art was created in the 15th century. The plaque was located in the church of the Holy Cross until it is was lost in unexplained circumstances. Found in the 1950s It was again exposed to the public view – first attached to the wall of the tower, and in the 1990s transferred to the castle.
