Museum of Communism, Poland, Communist history museum in Palace of Culture and Science, Warsaw, Poland.
The Museum of Life under Communism presents daily objects, machinery, and documents illustrating the period between 1944 and 1989 in Poland.
The museum project originated in 1999 through the initiative of several Polish intellectuals but faced cancellation in 2011 due to financial constraints.
The exhibition displays photographs, authentic relics, and multimedia presentations that reveal the social conditions of Polish citizens during the communist era.
