We walked to the museum on day one of our visit, and from the outside, we were not sure if it was open, or even if it was the right place so didn’t go in. Read some reviews that evening, and went back the following day, so pleased we did. It is one of the best museums I have ever visited. Mind blowing!!! Having been in my early twenties back around the time of the solidarity movement forming, I recall how the events at the Gdańsk Shipyard were world news for weeks/ months on end. The museum took all those news headlines from my past, and like jigsaw pieces, put them all together to make a distant memory into an emotional rollercoaster as it told the story of the collective impact of the shipyard workers on the world. Not to be missed.

It was so interesting to learn about the history of Poland and I’m so glad I visited. I didn’t no much history while walking into this museum and found this museum so informative. We used the audio tour which came in different languages which toured us round the museum. The museum was a respectful memorial but also showed us the brutality of what happened. We took the 2.5 hour tour but there was also an option of 1.5 hour. Would recommend

Impressive architecture houses an excellent museum. Not only very informative, it's a very stimulating presentation of historical events in all kinds of mixed media, that is genuinely a moving and emotional story. Would recommend to anyone visiting as a must-see for Gdansk.

This is a truly magnificent centre - not to be missed. Outstanding audio-guide. Easily allow 3 hours if you're into the detail of your history. At present, note the the Hall of negotiations is not part of the key building and easily missed if you're not aware it stands separately. We only found this key part of the museum as the internal museum shop is currently incomplete and attaches to the Hall.

Excellent modern museum with fantastic audio guide (seems to be a great feature of many museums in Poland). Well priced and plenty to see. Opted for the longer audio guide tour at 2. 5 hours which was perfect. Building stunning

30Zl entry, which includes a headset. The next 3 hours were a very moving, and educational experience. So much suffering, and so many brave people prepared to make a stand. An absolute must if visiting Gdansk, and make sure you do the Level 6 viewing platform. Great views over the City & the former Lenin shipyards

What an interesting place this is! We walked from our hotel in the centre of Gdansk out to this impressive building. The space inside is amazing and we went for the 90 minute audio tour. There was a longer one available. The exhibition was very well organised and all information on the boards was in Polish and English. Fascinating insight into some of Poland's history. The viewing platform at the top afforded amazing views.

A must when visiting Gdansk! We went today, and it was one of the most moving things we have done. ( not counting Auschwitz). An amazing concept both artistically and politically. The permanent display with audio guide was fantastic value and took 2 hours.

Along with Malbork Castle and the World War Two Museum, this makes up the 3 attractions you really should visit on a trip to Gdańsk. Very informative of a turbulent time in Polish history that had wider implications across the Iron Curtain countries. Well thought out tour and the audio guide was excellent and allows you to investigate at your own pace.

A good museum describing the polish revolution starting with the strike at the shipyard in Gdansk. A lot of interesting items on display and information to read. It was a free audio guide, but I must say that the layout of the museum was quite interesting and that the audio guide did not always match what was on the wall that you could read.
