About

This museum emerged relatively recently, in 2013 to be exact. The boldly styled building is located on the site of a former Jewish ghetto, and its design was authored by a Finnish firm that won the construction tender in 2007.

Warto zobaczyć. Zarezerwować trzeba sobie min. 2,5h. Świetnie ukazana historia Żydów na tle państwa polskiego.
