• Recommended for 12 and up because the main exhibition shows brutal content, so younger kids do best sticking to the children's exhibition
• Free entry on Tuesdays, with tickets collected at the desk and no advance booking, and a cap of 2,500 visitors, so expect a queue
• Baby rooms downstairs on levels -2 and -3, with a changing table and a feeding chair, and wide corridors for strollers throughout

The Museum of the Second World War tells the story of the war through military equipment, documents and wartime objects. Seeing the whole main exhibition takes at least three hours.

Younger kids start at Podróż w czasie, a children's exhibition at the beginning of the route that follows a Warsaw family through the war and includes a prewar school classroom. It comes with the main exhibition ticket.
