The exhibition does not tell one story, nor does it directly reconstruct the history of the city from its beginnings to the present day. While walking through the Old Town tenement houses, at your own pace and along a route of your choice, everyone can use these objects to build their own story about Warsaw. Audio guides are also available, allowing you to tour the main exhibition step by step.

Data of Warsaw

With data, you can verify stereotypes and common opinions about Warsaw, its residents and its spaces. It also makes it possible to identify more precisely which events and phenomena gave the city its present shape and character, and what made Warsaw the city it is and not another. Read more.

Histories of Tenement Houses

The history of changes in the structure of the northern side of the Market Square and the architectural elements of individual tenement houses are the starting point for discovering events and figures connected with this place. They are discussed both in the part of the exhibition devoted to them and in descriptions placed in the museum's tenement houses, which you can find while visiting. Read more.
