The Museum is a modern institution of culture - it is a historical museum which presents the 1000 years of Jewish life in the Polish lands. It is also a place of meeting and dialogue among those who wish to explore the past and present Jewish culture, those eager to draw conclusions for the future from Polish-Jewish history, and finally those who are ready to face the stereotypes and oppose xenophobia and nationalistic prejudices that threaten today’s societies. By promoting the ideas of openness, tolerance and truth, POLIN Museum contributes to the mutual understanding and respect among Poles and Jews.
In 2016, POLIN Museum won the title of the European Museum of the Year Award (EMYA 2016).
POLIN Museum rose up to the challenge of creating an engaging and persuasive core exhibition without a substantial collection of artefacts. The programme of temporary exhibitions, educational activities, conferences, academic and artistic residences make the Museum a vibrant platform for dialogue and spreading the knowledge on Jewish history and heritage – reads the EMYA Jury statement.

Palace of Culture and Science - the tallest building in Poland (in terms of overall height), located in the center of Warsaw at Plac Defilad 1. The owner of the building is the capital city of Warsaw. The palace is the seat of the Council of the Capital City of Warsaw, which meets in the Warsaw Hall. It is managed by the municipal company Zarząd Palac Kultury i Nauki Sp. z o.o. The building has been in the register of monuments since 2007.
The palace was a "gift of the Soviet people to the Polish nation." It was built in 1952–1955 according to the design of the Soviet architect Lew Rudniwa, who was inspired by Moscow skyscrapers (known outside of Russia as the Seven Sisters), modeled on American art deco skyscrapers. Architecturally, it is a mixture of socialist realism and Polish historicism. Together with the antenna support, which is an integral part of the spire, it has a height of 237 meters.
The palace is the seat of many enterprises and public utilities, including four theaters, three museums (National Technical Museum, Museum of the Evolution of the Polish Academy of Sciences and the Museum of Doll Houses), cinema, Collegium Civitas, authorities of the Polish Academy of Sciences and the Central Commission for Degrees and Titles. Various types of exhibitions and fairs are organized there - from 1958, the International Book Fair and accompanying fairs were held there for many years, as well as for several years (at the turn of the 20th and 21st century) the Computer Expo. It houses a conference and entertainment hall for 3000 people (Congress Hall) and Youth Palace with a swimming pool.
In front of the main entrance (from the side of Marszałkowska Street) there are two sculptures: Adam Mickiewicz by Stanisław Horno-Popławski and Mikołaj Kopernik by Ludwika Nitschowa.
