The Eagle Pharmacy Museum (Polish: Muzeum "Apteka Pod Orłem") is a branch of the Historical Museum of Kraków located at 18 Bohaterów Getta Square in Podgórze, the former district of Kraków, Poland. Originally established as a private pharmacy in 1910, during World War II it operated within the Kraków Ghetto. Its owner, Tadeusz Pankiewicz, was the only non-Jewish Pole permitted to remain and operate a business inside the ghetto. The pharmacy served as a vital hub for clandestine aid, communication, and resistance, providing shelter, medical supplies, and moral support to the persecuted Jewish community. After the war, the site was gradually transformed into a commemorative museum. The permanent exhibition opened in 2003 following contributions from Holocaust survivor and filmmaker Roman Polanski.
