what 4 or 5 consonant clusters?

I know Czech language has them, but I'm aside from diphtongues I'm not sure polish reaches 3 consonants in a row

Only one 4 consonant cluster that comes to my mind is szcz, but it's not actually 4 but 2, since both sz and cz are diphthongs making one sound.

I don’t speak Polish, but I learned about the language in linguistics at some point.

There is no information about clusters of consonants that I can find in that article with the amount of effort I want to put in for the online discussion
