Summary/Abstract: This article focuses on the concept of a living museum based on the Stained Glass Factory in Cracow. It examines how such a museum can integrate elements of real life into the exhibition, creating a unique experience for visitors. By examining the intersection of traditional craftsmanship and contemporary engagement strategies, the paper delves into the potential of revitalising cultural heritage. The study investigates the impact of such a concept on preserving and promoting the rich legacy of stained glass artistry, providing insights into the viability and enriching potential of this concept for both the local community and visitors. The conducted research also aims to trace the historical significance of stained glass in Cracow’s architecture and how the museum concept affects the dissemination of this knowledge.
