After the collapse of communism in Poland in 1989, most of the Polish cultural institutions have been undergoing tremendous improvements. Unfortunately, it’s not the case for the Museum of Technology and Industry in Warsaw. Time stopped there and it’s a pity since this institution has a huge potential in terms of venue and exhibits. So when you go there, it’s not only about exploring the history of technology. It’s also visiting the museum that looked exactly the same 30 years ago. For some, it can be an interesting experience
Still, kids may find the Museum attractive: you will find there vintage vehicles, models of ships, old-fashioned telephones (you can explain why we say “dial a number”), early computers, Enigma code-breaking machine
