Museum of Warsaw, Historical museum in Old Town Market Square, Poland.
The Museum of Warsaw occupies eleven connected tenement houses, displaying over 7,000 objects that document the development of Poland's capital through centuries.
Founded in 1936 as part of the National Museum, the institution reopened in 1948 after surviving severe damage during the Warsaw Uprising of 1944.
The collection includes twenty-one thematic rooms presenting artifacts, photographs, and documents that reflect Warsaw's social transformations and daily life through generations.
Located at 28-42 Market Square, the museum remains open Tuesday through Sunday, with extended evening hours on Thursdays and free admission on specific days.
During renovations in 2010, workers discovered a hidden treasure of 1,211 coins from the 17th and 18th centuries in the museum's basement.
