Join the family game “Museum Detectives” at the Katyn Museum to celebrate Polish Armed Forces Day

To celebrate Polish Armed Forces Day, we invite children accompanied by adults, teenagers and whole families to take part in the special museum game “Museum Detectives” at the Katyn Museum!
Can you spot traces of the past where others see nothing but bricks and exhibits?
Step into the role of a detective and set off in search of clues from the past. Find objects hidden throughout the Katyn Museum’s exhibition, as well as those that can be discovered within the museum’s walls. Every object you find is another clue leading you towards the history and traditions of the Polish Armed Forces, as well as the history of this place and the stories of the people whose memory is preserved in the Museum’s collections.
