Mausoleum and museum of Radogoszcz prison, World War II memorial site in Julianów-Marysin-Rogi, Poland.

The Radogoszcz prison complex contains multiple exhibition halls displaying artifacts, documents, and photographs documenting the Nazi occupation of Łódź during World War II.

The building, originally constructed as a factory in the 1930s, became a German police prison in 1939 where over 40,000 people were detained throughout World War II.

The museum exhibits tell stories of resistance, persecution, and survival through personal belongings, letters, and testimonies of prisoners who were held in the facility.

Located at Zgierska 147 in Łódź, the museum maintains regular opening hours and provides guided tours in multiple languages for visitors throughout the year.

In January 1945, prison guards set fire to the building with 1,500 prisoners inside, leaving only 30 survivors, leading to its later transformation into a memorial.
