Tourists have been left ‘gobsmacked’ at waxworks of famous British royals in a Polish museum – branding them ‘hysterical’.
Visitors from the UK were left in stitches upon seeing recreations of the late Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip – as well as the Prince and Princess of Wales – at the venue in Krakow.
Taking to TikTok, Samantha and her girlfriend Ellie offered a hilarious insight of their time at the exhibit.
The pair, giggling, were shocked as they took in the sculptures of King Charles III’s parents – featuring a less than flattering hairline for Her Majesty.
Next, they panned over to the iterations of William and Kate which had them doubling over in laughter.
The Princess, 43, known for her dark brown tresses was fitted with blonde hair and bizarrely large teeth.
‘Been to Turkey,’ the girls joked.
William’s silhouette fared no better as flyaway tufts of ginger hair adorned his head. His teeth also appeared abnormally large.

‘Doesn’t look a full shilling,’ the pair quipped in the background.
Other exhibits also showed statues of Bruce Lee, Marylin Monroe and Elvis Presley.
The commenters were ‘screaming’, baffled and delightfully entertained by the selection, which set the couple back £11.
‘Is it just me who thought the queen looked like David Walliams,’ one poster asked, referring to the waxwork of Elizabeth II – prompting some agreements.
‘This is shocking, where is this?’ another questioned.
‘Going Krakow in march and this is top of my list,’ a third added.

‘Hands down one of the funniest wax museum I ever visited, It’s a must if your visiting Krakow,’ one penned.
The Polonia Wax museum – a known visitor site in the Polish city – offers wax figures of ‘famous politicians, clergy, athletes, actors, fictional characters’ which are ‘carefully crafted to capture the smallest details and so that you can feel that they are really standing next to you’.
It boasts three stars out of five on TripAdvisor, with a mixed plethora of some 200 reviews.
‘Some good, some bad – a must-do, fun place to visit,’ one suggested. ‘Located in Kraków’s most popular street, the Wax Museum is a fun place to visit after a few beers or vodka’s.
‘Some figures are recognisable, however many, possibly deliberately, are not and these are very funny. You’re encouraged to take selfies with the figures and this adds to the fun.
‘There is also a Hall of Mirrors and a mirrored bubble room – both interesting experiences. It is not expensive and is good fun.’
FEMAIL has reached out to the Polonia Wax Museum for a comment.
Meanwhile, in the summer, another waxwork of a famous British sportsman on display in a museum in Poland was leaving fans on social media baffled.
The eerie statue on display at the Tower of Secrets Wax Museum in Gdansk has been compared to former President of the Soviet Union, Mikhail Gorbachev.
But it in fact England and Manchester United legend Wayne Rooney.
A snap of the waxwork has sparked a wave of humorous reactions online.
Taking to Reddit, one bemused fan, u/No-Philosopher5239, posted a photo of the waxwork on the subreddit r/CasualUK on August 4.
The figure, featuring Rooney in a red Adidas windbreaker, showcases a much thinner frame, balding wisps of hair, patchy facial stubble, and pasty skin, causing many to question its likeness to the famed footballer.
More than 1,000 responses have since poured in from Brits, with many drawing parallels to characters from popular culture, including puppets from the TV show Thunderbirds, as well as hybrid species from cult sci-fi franchise Star Trek.
