At the market square in two eighteenth-century tenement houses, there is a clock museum run by the founders of the place, i.e. the Przypkowski family.
It is considered to be the third collection of this kind in the world after Oxford and Chicago. There are hundreds of sundials and gnomonic instruments, hourglasses, fire, and mechanical clocks as well as astronomical instruments. The collection is adorned with a 16th century sundial made by Erazm Habermel, a sundial with a cannon firing at noon, made in Paris for King Stanisław Leszczyński; 17th-century majolica water hourglass.
In the department of old prints numbering about 500 volumes, one of the most valuable is the work of Nicolaus Copernicus from 1566 – "De revolutionibus orbium coelestium". Particularly noteworthy is also the famous history of the world of Hartman Sched "Liber chronicarum", richly illustrated with woodcuts and published in Nuremberg in 1493.
Also worth seeing are the originally preserved interiors of the Przypkowski house filled with art collections as well as the "Ogród czasu" (Garden of Time) at the back of the museum.
