Visiting the Piaśnica Museum
in Wejherowo

We invite you to a space of remembrance – at the Piaśnica Museum, every step is an encounter with history. Our permanent exhibition presents the truth about the crimes in Pomerania and the tragedy of Piaśnica through two levels of narrative – one concerning the heroes of the Second Polish Republic (1920-1939), the other showing the dark side of the organization of mass murders at the turn of 1939/1940. Here, each exhibit becomes a witness to the past and the beginning of reflection on the meaning of memory.
