Besatzung und Widerstand – Rundgang zur Erinnerung an den Überfall der deutschen Wehrmacht auf Polen
Selected objects help to show the story of the reconstruction of Warsaw after the destruction of the city and of the Polish cultural heritage. This involves the difficult question of how this rebuilding could be carried out in a country that had defended itself against the German invaders but had not taken a resolute stand against the antisemitic ideology that went along with the occupation.
The tour invites visitors to reflect on remembrance, blind spots, and the politics of history in postwar Poland.
