Emigration Museum

The Emigration Museum is a history museum in Gdynia housed in a former harbor station where people once departed. Inside, visitors find interactive displays, historical objects, and documents that show the experiences of people who left Poland.

The building itself served as a crucial point from the 1930s until 1979 where people began their journeys abroad. This long history made the location a meaningful symbol of the country's emigration movements.

The museum focuses on the personal stories of people who left Poland, displaying their belongings, photographs, and memories from different countries and periods. Visitors can understand how emigration shaped the lives of many families.

The museum is located in Gdynia at an easy-to-reach spot and is open to visitors on most days of the week. It is helpful to check the exact opening hours before your visit, as these may vary with the season.

The museum collects letters, photographs, and personal items from emigrants that people from around the world have contributed. This collection continues to grow as new stories arrive from descendants and relatives.
