MAIN EXHIBITION CLOSURE - JANUARY 7-17, 2025

From January 7 to 17, 2024, the main exhibition at the Museum of the Second World War will be closed due to necessary renovation works (including renovation of the floor, installation of new exhibition elements). We apologize for any inconvenience and we thank you for your understanding. During this time, we invite you to visit our temporary exhibition entitled "Forest. Shelter of victims. Crime Hideout", which will remain open and available to visitors.

 

We hope that after the modernization works are completed, the main exhibition will meet your highest expectations and will allow us to tell the history of World War II in an even better, fuller and richer way.

 

We encourage you to follow our social media and website, where we publish information about the Museum's activities and upcoming events.
