Katyń Museum, Military history museum in Warsaw, Poland
The Katyń Museum occupies a dedicated space within the Warsaw Citadel, presenting exhibits about the 1940 mass execution of Polish officers.
The museum, established in 1993, moved from its original location in Fort Sadyba to the Warsaw Citadel to accommodate growing collections and visitor numbers.
The museum stands as Poland's primary institution for documenting and researching materials related to the events of the Katyń massacre during World War II.
