Exhibition "Destruction and Reconstruction of the Royal Castle in Warsaw"
It is worth starting your visit to the Royal Castle with the multimedia historical exhibition located in the cellars. By means of an emotionally engaging narrative, preserved archival materials and modern technology, the exhibition brings closer the colourful and turbulent history of the building, which for Poles is a symbol of independence. Without this knowledge, it is impossible to understand the cultural phenomenon of the Royal Castle in Warsaw. The exhibition...
Exhibition "The Order of Things"
Feel like an ethnographer! For the first time in the history of Polish museology, each visitor can enter the catalogued world of the museum's collection storehouse, normally invisible and hidden behind the scenes.

Arranged symmetrically, in rows, often with...

The three-room, 100-square-metre flat was, by the standards of the time, not very exquisite accommodation for a young, childless intellectual couple. On the outskirts of Warsaw (further away was Pole...
