From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Warsaw Uprising Museum, located in Warsaw, Poland, is a Museum dedicated to the Warsaw Uprising. It opened on July 31, 2004.
The Museum sponsors research into the history of the Warsaw revolt of 1944, and the history and possessions of the Polish "resistance state". It collects and maintains artefacts from the Uprising; and has many interesting exhibits.
Exhibits range from weapons used by the insurgents to love letters, to present a full picture of the people involved. The Museum's stated goals are the creation of an archive of historical information on the Uprising, and the recording of the stories and memories of revolt participants before they die.
The Museum uses the newest audiovisual techniques to enhance interactive participation in the viewing of exhibition articles; and it has received good reviews and the strong support of the Warsaw public. The director of the Museum is Jan OĊdakowski.
