Tracing the traces of communist Poland / guided tour

Working people of cities and villages. The "Cucumber around Warsaw" collective invites you to a unique tour along the trail of the People's Republic of Poland in our city.

People's Republic of Poland - three letters, but so much content. For some, it is an era associated with Soviet oppression, empty shop shelves, widespread greyness and hopelessness, while others like to revisit these times in their memories because their youth fell on these seemingly sad times. On one thing we all agree. It is a large piece of Polish history which, for various reasons, should not be forgotten.

We would like to invite you to a unique tour of Warsaw of the communist era. On board our vintage Jelcz "Ogórka", you will have the opportunity to find out how much the city changed after the Second World War. Our guide will take you to places where time has stopped.

You will learn how the capital was rebuilt from the war damage, what ideas the communist authorities had for the new Warsaw. Which of these plans were realised and which remained only on paper. Together with your guide, you will look for old communist-era advertising murals, iconic establishments that are still in operation today and those that have long since been forgotten. You will talk about famous inhabitants of the communist capital and listen to funny anecdotes about them.

But that's not all, because this time we will not only take a tour of the city, but also take you to our own Prague Melina, where the collected exhibits will bring back childhood memories - after all, this is exactly how our parents' and grandparents' flats were furnished.

We meet every Sunday at 11 a.m. on Plac Defilad. Our vintage bus will be standing in front of the main entrance to the Palace of Culture and Science from Marszałkowska Street. Please arrive no later than 15 minutes before the tour starts.
