From Wednesday, 21 January 2026, until 31 March 2026, the National Museum in Szczecin – the Dialogue Centre Upheavals hosts an exhibition entitled “The Most Important”, held in connection with the 10th anniversary of the establishment of the institution.

The exhibition will present the most important items in the NMS–DCU collection, which were donated primarily by 476 donors: beginning with memorabilia from the periods of partition brought to Western Pomerania by settlers after 1945, to objects from the interwar period, originating from the Second Polish Republic, German Szczecin and the Province of Pomerania, and from the Second World War, to objects from the Polish People’s Republic: related propaganda and showing the new communist Poland, as well as evidence of social resistance that led to the political upheaval in 1989. The location of the exhibition will be a surprise: the collections will be displayed primarily in display cases and on the walls of the conference room/dialogue space, but also in the permanent exhibition space of the NMS–DCU. Important elements of the exhibition will be objects loaned by various institutions and collectors, previously presented at the NMD–DCU and enjoying considerable public interest.
