Skansen Battle Polish Army

Skansen Battle Polish Army is an open-air museum in Mniszew that displays military vehicles, artillery pieces, and equipment from different periods of Polish military history. The exhibits are spread across outdoor grounds that recreate the layout of a wartime encampment.

The museum was founded in 1977 to preserve the legacy of the First Army of the Polish Army and their defense of the Warecko-Magnuszew Bridgehead in 1944. That military operation was a significant moment in the fight to liberate Poland.

The reconstructed trenches and defensive positions on the grounds show how soldiers organized their defenses during the Second World War. Visitors can walk through these structures and understand the scale of military operations from that era.

The museum grounds are accessible to visitors from early morning through the evening, though specific hours vary depending on the season. It is best to check the opening times before your visit, especially if you plan to go outside of summer months.

Among the vehicles on display are Soviet tanks including the T-34 and even a Katyusha rocket launcher, showing the Soviet role in this phase of the conflict. These uncommon pieces of equipment give visitors a direct impression of what was actually used in the fighting.
