Dear Varsovians, This Year’S Long Night of Museums Will Be Already the 12Th Edition of This Extraordinary Celebration of Culture, Art and Science in the Capital City Dear Varsovians, This year’s Long Night of Museums will be already the 12th edition of this extraordinary celebration of culture, art and science in the Capital City. The form of this event has not changed since the very beginning: invariably, over the course of several nighttime hours, various institutions and venues wish to present the most interesting aspects of their activity, and Varsovians invariably visit them in great numbers. This year, there are 237 museums, galleries, studios, foundations, schools, embassies, state institutions and many, many others awaiting guests. Each of them attracts visitors with an interesting programme, available in many cases on this one night exclusively. Traditionally, there will be special bus lines created, transporting Varsovians and tourists from one venue to another. I wish to encourage you to make use of Veturilo bicycles as well. I invite you to get acquainted with this guidebook, which will help you make your own sightseeing plans.

  • The Foundation Stone for the Polish History Museum Was Laid
    The foundation stone for the Polish History Museum was laid. Warsaw Ghetto Museum congratulates. The map of Warsaw museums is completed. With the participation of state and self- government authorities, clergy and directors of the museums, there was a ceremony of laying an erection act for the construction of the permanent seat of the Museum of Polish History in the Warsaw Citadel. President Andrzej Duda in a solemn letter, read by the Undersecretary of State in the Chancellery Office of the President of the Republic of Poland, Wojciech Kolarski, wrote that the citadel for 80 years filled the hearts of Poles with fear. It was a symbol of slavery and terror. And he added that only now we are faced with the chance that this space, once ominous and then overlooked, would play an important and positive role in the consciousness of Poles. Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki reminded that it was Poles who gave a huge tribute of blood on all fronts of World War II, creating „the world’s largest underground state”, fighting for „freedom, dignity and humanity”. Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Culture Piotr Gliński assessed that „there is no nation without memory”. „The wise nation nurtures this memory through institutions. Today, we are actually starting to build such an institution, building a monument of our history. For the implementation of the largest and unprecedented project in the field of museology in the history of our homeland and devoted to those times.” The tube inbuilt in the foundations of the museum contains circulation coins and banknotes, commemorative coins and banknotes of the National Bank of Poland, a copy of the Thursday edition of „Rzeczpospolita” daily as well as films and photos presenting the current state of the museum construction recorded on a USB stick.
