The Museum at the 13th Night at the Institute of Aviation

The Polish Aviation Museum stand could be visited between 5:00 PM and 11:00 PM on the grounds of the Institute of Aviation in Warsaw at al. Krakowska 110. We prepared an educational and recreational zone, a mobile museum shop, animations, workshops on masterful paper airplane folding, aviation quizzes and a colouring corner for children.

Visitors could also see the exhibition To Aid Fighting Warsaw. On Aviation Missions over the Occupied Country on the 80th Anniversary of the Warsaw Uprising. On 20 display boards set up as an outdoor exhibition, the history of supply drops for the Home Army across Poland and for the insurgents was presented, carried out by the crews of the Polish 1586 Special Duties Squadron as well as British, South African and American squadrons. The exhibition also recalled the propaganda-laden, yet essentially symbolic, operations of Soviet aviation and the 2nd “Kraków” Night Bomber Regiment. Its vernissage took place on August 1, 2024, as part of the Museum’s commemorations of the 80th anniversary of the Warsaw Uprising.
