The Dollhouse Museum

The Dollhouse Museum, Miniature house collection museum in Old Town, Warsaw, Poland

The Dollhouse Museum, at Podwale 15, holds four permanent exhibitions: over 150 historic dollhouses, sacred toys, Polish games and toys of the 20th century, and more than 1,000 dolls from around the world. The oldest pieces are over 200 years old, and thousands of tiny objects recreate former homes, shops, schools, hospitals, workshops, hair salons and churches.

The museum was founded on the initiative of Aneta Popiel-Machnicka, who had been collecting and conserving dollhouses since 2006, and is run by the Belle Époque Foundation. It opened on 1 June 2016, Children's Day, in the Palace of Culture and Science, where it operated until the end of October 2020. It then moved to Podwale 15 in Warsaw's Old Town.

The collection features dolls dressed in traditional clothing from around the world, each reflecting different customs and ways of living. Visitors can observe how toys served as tools for teaching cultural values and practices across generations.

The museum is at Podwale 15, a short walk from the Old Town and near Ratusz Arsenał metro station. Four permanent exhibitions occupy the building, including over 150 dollhouses and more than 1,000 dolls. Workshops, museum games and educational lessons for children, teenagers and seniors are offered alongside the displays.

One permanent exhibition focuses on Polish religious toys, revealing how faith and play were intertwined in daily life. This section shows the toys people crafted to teach children about spiritual values in a hands-on way.
