The Casimir Pulaski Museum in Warka and the U.S. Embassy in Poland are proud to present a free concert by the renowned U.S. Naval Forces Europe and Africa Band!
We are happy to announce that the Casimir Pulaski Museum in Warka reopens to the public starting from May 5, 2021. The exhibitions can be toured from Wednesday through Friday from 10 am to 5 pm, and on Saturdays and Sundays from 11 am to 6 pm.
We are proud to announce that our Museum has received a subsidy from the Polish Ministry of Culture, National Heritage, and Sports to finance a project entitled "Warka, a 700-year history."
Since 2017, March 24 has marked the National Day of Remembrance for Poles who rescued Jews under German occupation. It was initiated by the President of the Republic of Poland on the anniversary of the tragic death of the Ulma family from Markowa near Rzeszów, whom Germans executed for helping Jews following a decree dating October 15, 1941, requiring the Jewish population to limit their stay in the region.
The Casimir Pulaski Museum in Warka will be closed to visitors until April 9, 2021 to ensure the safety of Museum guests and employees, in accordance with the provisions stipulated in the Ordinance of the Polish Council of Ministers dating March 19, 2021, establishing certain restrictions, injunctions, and prohibitions in connection with the outbreak of an epidemic (Journal of Laws 2021, item 512.)
The Casimir Pulaski Museum in Warka will be closed to visitors from March 15 through March 28, 2021 due to the increase in the incidence of Covid-19 cases, and to ensure the safety of Museum guests and employees, in accordance with the provisions stipulated in the Ordinance of the Polish Council of Ministers dating March 11, 2021, amending the Ordinance on the establishment of certain restrictions, injunctions, and prohibitions in connection with the outbreak of an epidemic (Journal of Laws 2021, item 446).
Polish people marked the 276th anniversary of Casimir Pulaski’s birth with flowers laid at the foot to his monument in the Warka park. The ceremony was attended by representatives of the local governments from the districts of Grójec and Warka, regional organizations, and schools named after Pulaski.
Due to construction works on Pulaski Street, which leads to our Museum, access to both the Museum and the park has been rendered difficult.
Casimir Pulaski was born 276 years ago, on March 6, 1745. However, researchers erroneously assumed for over two centuries that the brave Continental Army soldier and Bar Confederate had been born in a Pulaski family country estate called Winiary, located near the town of Warka.
