Muzeum Powstania Warszawskiego
Enormously fascinating, The Warsaw Rising Museum is a moving experience that anyone to Warsaw must visit. This museum will almost certainly not bore anyone, especially with the museum's superb use of multimedia. The museum has bilingual displays in Polish and English. The museum does a good job of explaining the perceived history of the insurgents and the Uprising in the years following the Second World War. You can also take an elevator to the rooftop to see the surroundings of Wola district. If you go on Sunday, they have chapel services at 12:30.
