Museum of Armed Deed

The Museum of Armed Deed is a military museum in Nowa Huta that displays weapons, uniforms, documents, and artifacts from Polish military operations. The collection spans thousands of objects representing different periods of Polish armed conflict and defense.

The museum was founded in 1968 and focuses on key moments in Polish military history, particularly the 1939 campaign and resistance movements during occupation. These periods represent turning points that shaped the nation.

The museum connects the steel industry of Nowa Huta with military service through a photo collection of factory workers who served as combatants. This display reflects how the industrial city was intertwined with the armed struggle.

Permanent exhibitions cover the Polish Armed Forces and various periods of military history across multiple sections. Guided tours in several languages are available to help visitors better understand the displays.

An IS-2 tank that saw action in regional battles stands at the museum entrance as a preserved war monument. This vehicle gives visitors a tangible connection to the heavy machinery of that era.
