About the museum

The initiative to establish the Museum of the History of Polish Jews was born in the Association of the Jewish Historical Institute and gradually gained recognition both in Poland and abroad. Thanks to the support of individual and institutional donors from around the world, it was possible to begin work on the museum project in 1995 and continue it — as a social initiative — until 2005.
