English: The Emeryk Hutten-Czapski Museum (also The Czapski Museum) is a branch of the National Museum of Kraków. Count Emeryk Hutten-Czapski, (born 17 October 1828 in Stankow near Minsk, died 23 July 1896 in Kraków) was a Vice-Governor of St Petersburg and an important collector of books, prints, and numismatics. He built his collection at his family estate in Stankow, today in Belarus. Fearing for the safety of the collection, being close to Russia, he moved the collection to Kraków. In 1894, he purchased a nineteenth century palace, on what is today 12 Pilsudski Street, and built an extension to house his collection. He personally catalogued the collection but died before the extension was completed. His wife, Baroness Elzbieta Meyendorff, completed the construction of the extension, and in 1904, as per her husband´s request, donated the collection to the city of Kraków. The museum displays the Czapski crest on the outside, along with the inscription on the pediment: "Monumentis Patriae Naufragio Ereptis" (Patriotic Monuments Saved from the Destruction of the Storm).

Ludwik Kusionowicz was born in Czchów on 3 August 1816 to parents Izydor and Marianna (nee Karnikiewicz) and after studying theology in Vienna was ordained as a priest in Tarnów in 1840, by Bishop F Zachariasiewicz, before being appointed the parish priest in Gdów on 6 June 1842. With the financial support of Eleonora Fihauser, heiress of Fałkowice Manor, Ludwik expanded the Gdów Church by extending the presbytery and building a new sacristy and hexagonal chapel. On 12 September 1865 Ludwik was appointed state school inspector for the Deanery of Wieliczka before his later appointment as Dean of Wieliczka and on 26 July 1871 he was awarded the honorary title of Canon of Tarnów (along with ‘Distinctorium’ medallion). Ludwik, who was also a founder of the Temperance Brotherhood, continued to serve as the Gdów parish priest until his passing on 27 December 1888. Prior to the famous battle of 1846, Ludwik, again with the support of Eleonora Fihauser, had had an impressive Chapel built in the local cemetery and on his passing he was laid to rest underneath this notable Chapel.
