The Museum of Life Under Communism in Warsaw offers a real treat for those who wish to go back in time and experience the every-day reality of the 1944 – 1989 communist era in Poland. Presented artifacts bring back bittersweet memories for older generations. For those, who were lucky enough not to live through it, tell real life stories set amidst the persistent and endless absurdity of the People’s Republic of Poland. The museum offers Expat’s Thursdays, when non-Polish citizens get an audio guide (English, French, Italian, Spanish) free of charge. For more information visit: mzprl.pl
