Lonely Planet review for Jewish Historical Institute
The Jewish Historical Institute, which houses a library and paintings, sculptures, and old religious objects related to Jewish culture. However it’s the exhibition on the Warsaw Ghetto that sticks with you when you leave. Black-and-white photos and 40 minutes of original film footage from the Ghetto hit home – images of the atrocious conditions Jews were forced to endure, with starvation and death part of everyday life, tell a disturbing tale.
