Faculty of History, Adam Mickiewicz University, Faculty of History at Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań, Poland.
This faculty of Adam Mickiewicz University is organized into specialized departments covering archaeology, ethnology, cultural anthropology, musicology, art history, and Eastern studies. It operates research facilities with extensive archives, digital resources, and specialized libraries for students at all levels.
This faculty became an independent academic unit in 1976 after developing from an earlier department within Adam Mickiewicz University, which was founded in 1919. The separation reflected the institution's growth and the need for specialized academic organization.
Students work hands-on with replicas of historical instruments here to recreate ancient music and understand how people heard and experienced compositions centuries ago. This direct contact with sound brings history to life.
The faculty welcomes both undergraduate and graduate students to use its research facilities and libraries. A visit is most rewarding during the academic term when archives and digital resources are fully operational.
Researchers here conduct archaeological digs in Upper Egypt and Sudan, using modern conservation techniques to preserve ancient discoveries. This field work directly connects the faculty to distant historical periods and expands knowledge beyond European history.
