Maria Skłodowska-Curie Museum, Biographical museum in Śródmieście, Warsaw, Poland.
The museum displays scientific instruments, personal letters, and research documents within a reconstructed 18th-century townhouse at 16 Freta Street.
The museum opened in 1967 to mark the centenary of Maria Skłodowska-Curie's birth, with her daughter Eve Curie Labouisse attending the ceremony.
The exhibition space presents the achievements of the first woman to receive two Nobel Prizes through photographs, documents, and laboratory equipment.
Visitors can explore the collections from Tuesday to Saturday between 12:00 and 18:00, with guided tours available in multiple languages.
The original commemorative plaque from 1932 survived World War II destruction and remains integrated into the reconstructed building's facade.

Warsaw combines medieval architecture with modern districts and offers visitors a look at several centuries of Polish history. The Old Town was reconstructed after World War II and includes the Market Square, the Royal Castle and the Barbican. The Palace of Culture has defined the skyline since the 1950s, while Wilanów outside the center displays baroque grandeur. The city stretches along the Vistula River, whose banks provide space for walking. Łazienki Park combines gardens with neoclassical buildings, while the Saxon Garden counts among Poland's oldest public parks. The POLIN Museum documents the history of Polish Jews, and the Neon Museum preserves postwar commercial signs. Praga on the right bank of the Vistula retains prewar buildings and has become an emerging arts district. Zabkowska Street shows preserved 19th-century tenements. Scientific institutions like the Copernicus Center and cultural venues complement the historical sites.
