Lonely Planet review for Roads to Freedom Exhibition

The Roads to Freedom exhibition is a collection of multimedia displays and artefacts illustrating Poland’s turbulent path to democracy, from the 1956 uprisings to martial law and the collapse of communism. At the time of research it was about to move from its former home in the shipyards to this location, attached to the Solidarity HQ. The exhibition is a poignant reminder of just how much has changed over the last 60 years, and of just how much dedication and sacrifice went into achieving that change. It’s well captioned in English, and is something every visitor to Gdańsk should see – it rounds out the Main Town’s Renaissance splendour with the knowledge of recent events that shaped the city.
