Tomasz Pryliński

Tomasz Pryliński ([ˈprɨliɲski]; August 24, 1847 – November 15, 1895) was a Polish architect and conservator active in Kraków during the foreign partitions of Poland.

Some of his achievements included the design for major restoration of the Sukiennice Cloth Hall at the Kraków Main Square.

He specialized in the Renaissance and embarked on the first ever photo-documentation of the deteriorating Wawel Castle, the traditional seat of Polish monarchs built at the behest of Casimir III the Great.

He conducted conservation work at the Church of St. Franciszek Salezy and at the Bishop's Palace in Kraków between 1881 and 1884.

He was brought to Kraków and laid to rest at the family tomb (pictured) built at the Rakowicki Cemetery by architect Zygmunt Langman.
