The interior as well the whole atmosphere of the museum is very dark. This is of course understandable for a war museum. The exhibition is somewhat messy. During our visit (Saturday in June) there were alot of school classes visiting. Better to be there early. When we left at around 13:00, some groups waited outside for their turn to get... More

If you are in Warsaw, you must go to this museum. It is a heavy experience. Warsaw was completely and entirely flattened by the Germans. That story is told in an entirely artful and darkly beautiful way at this museum.

This Museum is very well presented. It has a great range of documents, photographs and materials on display and for the English-speaking tourists there are many explanations in well written formats about the materials on display and the current Polish view of the Uprising. There are also a couple of short films to view which are interesting. It packs a... More

In essence a ver interesting musseum about the Polish uprising against the Nazi's in 1944 (part of the reason the city was so badly destroyed during WOII). but beware of a complete overload of audio visuals. it really is an 'experience' museum, which is not everyone's cup of tea. Also there were about 6 school classes let lose in the... More

The museum has a great collection of war material but overall we thought it was a bit chaotic. They are doing their utmost to combine the modern multimedia with historical information but are not completely succesfull. Entering the museum you need some minutes to get used to the darkness and the pavement of cobblestones. Don't forget to bring an ID,... More

Fairly new when we went it shows the history of Warsaw and Poland in WW2. It is graphic and tells it how it was, not very nice at times, but we need to be reminded what happens when we drop our guard. We also need to be reminded what we owe the Poles in eventually defeating this evil regime.

We didn't have enough time to see all what can be seen. Plan a good 3 hours if you want to see it all. Lot of short documentaries to watch. Very moving when you think it's real people, not actors... Definitely worth the price!

We had the audio headset which was good but make sure if you want to hire one that you have some ID on you - we had to leave our hotel key as we had no other id on us.

After being to Berlin two months ago, it was great to hear the polish side of the German and Russian invasion. Very moving and well presented museum. Leave yourself ample time to see all the exhibits! I didn't and was gutted to leave. Excellent value at only £3. Make sure you pay extra for the 3D film.
