  • After the failure of the November Uprising, about eleven thousand Poles emigrated to Western European countries. Those Poles included many prominent military men, politicians, artists and scientists. They went down in history as the Great Emigration because they played a crucial role in the struggle for Poland's independence. You can learn from this video about what political parties were formed in exile and in what ways Polish culture helped maintain the national identity.
    The video is intended for the 7th grade of the primary school.

    Dear Teachers,
    We've been closely cooperating with you over the last four years, preparing offers for schools and giving lessons and classes accordingly. Today we cannot have you in the museum, but education still remains for us the most important matter. And that is why we decided to prepare special video content based on the Polish core curriculum at different educational stages, and we hope it will come in handy during the difficult time of online teaching and learning. Our videos are inspired by our two permanent exhibitions so you can expect topics on the setting, plot and characters of "Pan Tadeusz" along with the historical context of the poem. There will also be videos on the post-war history of Poland. We do hope that such an unusual visit to our museum will support teaching subjects such as Polish, history and civics to your students.
