Visitors are in for an extraordinary adventure uncovering secrets of the world of fauna and flora, beautifully depicted in the illuminated sculptures.

The January Uprising was the largest and longest-lasting independence insurrection during the period of partitions. This uprising against the Russian invaders united Poles, Lithuanians, Belarussians, and Ukrainians, forever leaving its mark on our common memory and becoming an inspiration for the next generations of heroes fighting for freedom. On the 160th anniversary of this momentous event, we invite you to an exhibition that allows you to better understand both its historical significance and its personal, human dimension.

An exhibition commemorating the 80th anniversary of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising. The exhibition will be based on the testimonies of Jews who hid in the bunkers both in the ghetto area and on the “Aryan” side. Since all the objects and keepsakes were destroyed and burnt, words acquire a special role in the exhibition. Not only do they convey the feelings and experiences of their authors, but they also constitute a unique testimony, often the only tangible trace left behind by those who perished in the ghetto.
