It was between November 15th, 1940, and November 20th, 1941 that this wall constituted the border of the Jewish Ghetto. The Wall was 3 metres high and covered in barbed wires. Another fragment of the Wall remains in Waliców Street.

Warsaw Rising Museum

The Museum is the center of knowledge on the Warsaw Uprising. It was conceived in order to materialize the atmosphere of Uprising days and everyday life of civilians.

Museum of the Prison Pawiak

The Pawiak Prison Museum is a branch of the Museum of Independence. During the German occupation 1939-1945, this was a Gestapo prison.

Over one hundred thousand Polish citizens: Christians and Jews, were imprisoned in the Pawiak during the World War II, and over thirty thousand lost their lives.
