We invite you to visit every Wednesday and Saturday until the end of September between 1:00 PM and 5:00 PM! 🏰 The Barbican, part of the former defensive walls of the Old Town, is one of the most recognizable symbols of Warsaw. In addition to walking along the defensive walls, inside you can see the exhibition "The Barbican and the Walls of Old Warsaw. The Fate of the Monument" (exhibition available from May 21 to September 30). 👉 https://barbakan.muzeumwarszawy.pl/wystawy/wystawa-stala/ It tells the fascinating story of the loss and rediscovery of Warsaw's medieval defensive walls, which were forgotten, covered up, and only in the 20th century began to be restored to the city's memory. The exhibition showcases the changing fortunes of the fortifications – from their key military significance, through oblivion, to contemporary efforts at reconstruction and preservation. If you're planning a weekend stroll through the Old Town, be sure to take advantage of the walking route: "Secrets of the Barbican and Warsaw's City Walls." 👉 https://muzeumwarszawy.pl/spacer-tajemnice-barbakanu-i-warszawskich-murow-miejskich/ Walking through the gate and along the defensive walls is free and available year-round. ℹ️ Practical information: - Tickets can only be purchased at the main ticket office of the Museum of Warsaw at Rynek Starego Miasta 42. - Note! Visiting the Barbican is subject to prevailing weather conditions. Photo: Freta Street in the Old Town, Sylwester Braun aka Kris, ca. 1993, Warsaw, from the collection of the Museum of Warsaw.
