Dialogue Centre Przełomy
Centrum Dialogu Przełomy
A branch of the National Museum, built beneath a square, whose exhibits trace Szczecin’s history from 1945 to 1989, and whose building won a major European award.
The Dialogue Centre Przełomy is a branch of the National Museum in Szczecin. It sits beneath Solidarity Square, and its surface is a sloping urban plaza. In 2016, it received the World Architecture Festival’s award for World’s Best Building. Multimedia exhibits tell the story of how Szczecin changed from a German city to a Polish one after 1945, as well as the worker protests of 1970 and 1980 and the Solidarity movement. Entry is free on Tuesdays, and tickets are inexpensive at other times. The museum is closed on Mondays. It stands across the street from the Philharmonic.
