What to expect
1944 was a terrifying year for Warsaw. With its magnificent historical tenements, state-of-the-art sewage system, rapid growth, style and courtesy, this beautiful city, a real social, architectural and religious melting pot used to be called „The Pearl of the North”. This marvelous city was demolished almost to the last building and the last brick. A generation of people who were not even 20, the future of the country, perished. What was it that pushed Poles to rise? Was not the price for potential freedom won in battle too high? The Warsaw Rising Museum is not a typical museum. It is more of a time machine that takes its visitors back to 1944. The days preceding the rising, its consecutive phases and eventual failure are presented with the use of images and sounds. The visitors can see over 1000 authentic exhibits and 1500 photographs and movies. Additionally, the guests can watch a 5 minutes long 3D simulation of a flight over demolished and desolate Warsaw.
The POLIN Museum of the History of Polish Jews is a museum located in Warsaw documenting the centuries-old history of Jews in Poland. The museum fantastically describes the contribution of Jews to the development of Polish culture, economy, and science. In the virtual library, you can see masterpieces of Hebrew and Yiddish literature in a multimedia form: Talmud, religious, philosophical and moral works. Anyone can also print the title page from the 16th-century book on the press, and this is only a small part of the adventure with Jewish culture as it is in the Museum. Multimedia exhibitions await visitors, showing how Poles and Jews lived together for many hundreds of years and how both cultures merged together. In the conventional space you can get acquainted with the family and neighborly relations, look at the Jewish-Christian relationship. It is a huge part of the human history of this city. A place definitely worth seeing.
The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
