In Poland, Sketchfab accounts for 58.9% (or 43) instances with a volume of 1,152 assets (or 0.06%). By contrast, Europeana accounts for 34.2% (or 25) instances with a volume of 1,790,985 assets (or 93.9%).

High Sketchfab representation stems from the Malopolska’s Virtual Museums project to digitise collections primarily using 3D technologies. In addition to Sketchfab, high resolution assets (some at gigapixel resolution) from the 43 museums are available on the project platform accompanied by educational and contextual materials. The project was co-funded by the Malopolska Institute of Culture, Economic Development Department and European Regional Fund.

Two national museums publish public domain compliant assets via their own website: Muzeum Narodowe w Krakowie and Muzeum Narodowe w Warszawie. Biblioteka Narodowa contributes the largest volume of public domain compliant assets via Europeana (580,794 or 30.5% of total volume in Poland).
