#MUSEUMS
 

The Warsaw Uprising Museum
 

The 1944 Uprising in Warsaw was one of the biggest battles of resistance against the Nazi in Europe during WWII and brought almost complete destruction of the city. The Museum tells the story of tragic events of August and Spetember 1944 in a multimedia-based way. It’s an enthralling journey through the history of the struggle of the people of Warsaw for independence. 

It’s also one of very few museums in Warsaw open on Mondays. What’s more, on that particular day, it’s free of charge.
