I highly recommend visiting the Muzeum Powstania Warszawskiego (Warsaw Uprising Museum). You can learn a lot about what happend during the war, you can see what post-war Warsaw looked like, you can experience walking through the sewers... It is intense. It makes you realize what war really is. It was such an extreme experience for me, I cried a lot there.

To fully understand what war did to Poland and Warsaw, you can visit 4 museums: 1. Warsaw Uprising Museum (especially Miasto Ruin clip). 2. Polin - museum of history of Jews in Poland. 3. World War II museum in Gdańsk. 4. Europejskie Centrum Solidarności in Gdańsk (about post war history and road to freedom from USSR). All are modern, interactive and very interesting, you wont get bored ;)

"Sorry" does not only mean to apologise... it also mean to feel distress, unhappy about something. By saying "sorry" english speakers often want to say that they sympathize with other person. I'm explaing this, because "sorry" is translated to "przepraszam" in polish. But "przepraszam" ONLY means "to apologize". "Sorry" in english have A LOT of meanings. I suppose @7vivo didnt know this.

Good one! Thank you Emmo! Many people in Poland tend to forget that the uprising was more than Warsaw's thing - there were many people 're-settled' during ethnic cleansings in other parts of Poland who came to Warsaw during the war. Plus like many big cities, especially capitals, multinational community was pretty large so for example there was a substantial Slovak and Georgian (from the Caucasus, not the South) participation in the fighting. I am glad there is this Silesian guy in the story. Warsaw is pretty much a phoenix of a city with a number of destructive battles waged in the 1650s, in 1794 (Tadeusz Kościuszko's Uprising - a very interesting person with fascinating American episode in his life), 1831, 1939, 1943 (the Ghetto Uprising) and finally in 1944. Rebuilt every time, stronger than before so has a complicated legacy and identity. I guess I'll quote Terry Pratchett to explain it: 'This, milord, is my family’s axe. We have owned it for almost nine hundred years, see. Of course, sometimes it needed a new blade. And sometimes it has required a new handle, new designs on the metalwork, a little refreshing of the ornamentation … but is this not the nine hundred-year-old axe of my family? And because it has changed gently over time, it is still a pretty good axe, y'know. Pretty good.' Take care!

He escaped from labor camp and Gestapo was looking for him for about 6 months.

Sorry for not being able to come up with some recommendations referring to that, but I would like to add what I think is an important point. Yes, the Warsaw Uprising was a tragedy -- a huge, unimaginable terror. (And I don't know what the exhibition shows, but I'm kind of worried that it might have been focusing on the heroic military struggle aspect of it, while the real horror, I mean the REAL one, was the suffering and deaths of the civilian population. You know, of all the not-all-so-picturesque people: the old, the disabled, the immobile patients of hospitals: the kind of people who didn't fight and didn't want to fight, but who were thrown into history and made to face their death in flames, under the rubble or simply through deprivation of the assistance required, because a bunch of military folks up top had had a few vague ideas and some pretty sizable illusions). But I wanted to mention a bitter, lasting pain and suffering, and despair that came after that. See, the war didn't end well for us. Nazis lost it, but we haven't won it either. For Poland, what came after the war was not just peace and a gradual recuperation, as one could expect it. What came instead was the submission of our country to the Soviets and the installation of a semi-occupant regime, with the ministries actually staffed in substantial numbers by Russians or Soviet-Russia citizens of Polish descent. And terror -- terror (i.e.: arrests, torture and executions) directed precisely against the kind of people who earlier would have fought the Nazis in the Warsaw Uprising, in the Polish units of the Allied forces, etc. Basically, against anybody who posed a risk of spreading the knowledge that Poland used to be an independent and (mostly) democratic, sovereign state. And while this new regime was at its most brutal for just a few years and while Russians gradually left the offices to Poles (of pro-Soviet orientation), for the next 45 years, our country remained a prison for anybody wanting truth, real justice, rule of law, proper teaching of history, etc. This is the real Polish tragedy of the second half of the 20th century. The war was "only" its most violent starting point.

It shows the realistic view of battle of Racławice whitch maybe wasn't the most important battle in nation history but the fact of winning it was holding Polish People morale for long time.

There is one thing you should definitelly experience here in Poland and this is one of our music festivals - nowadays called Pol'and'Rock, but previously better known as Woodstock Festival. Even if you don't like music festivals or rock music in general (although musically there is something for pretty much anyone), this festival has an atmosphere that you probably won't experience anywhere else. This is probably the only festival in the world where you will find people who have been coming for many years and have never been evn once on any concert before! :D All of this because they come just fot that atmosphere and people, not for music. And it is impossible to get bored there . There is tons of videos here on youtube, such as "Woodstock bez cenzury by Caml/Ostro" from 2012, 2013 or 2015.

Long story short = that's the guy who single handedly defeated British for the first time during US fight for independence(at Saragossa), abolished slavery in the lands he has been granted by US government, build West Point and came back to non existing on the map(at his times) Poland to start "powstanie kościuszkowskie" (the word is he brought some american military experts with him - Thank You and Your ancestors for that) Considering Your upcoming EuroTrip, maybe it would be worth it, to plan a visit at Kościuszko Museum in Switzerland(place where he eventually passed away)

I highly recommend it - it's absolutely terrifying to see a real place of torture, you can't really understand how people were capable of doing such unholy things to other humans. Also, it struck me how many people died in the area where I live now, with all those new fancy apartments built recently (Wola).

I`m historican and if you want to I will gladly help you with learning more about Poland or learning Polish ;) I can recomend you few things on youtube: "The Unconquered", "Animated history of Poland" or Sabaton band`s song "Uprising". When it comes to museums I think as most here that Aushwitz is something you should see...everyone should. Also museum of Second World War in Gdańsk or Exploseum in Bydgoszcz. For something more positive I can invite you to Poznań, we have museum of Rogale Świętomarcińskie, you have to try them :)

Love your videos Emma and like you filling related to the uprising because of that Texas guy, I fill related to you. Just last year when you were in Warsaw, I was coming to St Louis area (from Chicago) to service our equipment in O'Fallon and Gravois Bluffs. You fill like next door girl. And you are lovely and funny when you speak polish because it is not easy language.

I think that more impact on nowadays culture and mindset had the time under soviets power. Times of PRL when people was encourege by the system to be suspicous, to not trust others (of course many opposed that influnce) but i think it had a big impact on how some people think.

I recommend something to you which isn't any place to visit but the black and white film entitled 'Popiół i diament' ('Ashes and Diamonds') from 1958. This film helps you to delve into the people of that time or maybe sheer Polish nature at its finest (I like to think about it in this terms). It's available at KZbin for free.

If you want to read and learn about the Warsaw Uprising, this is a good book - Norman Davies,, Uprising 44 '' English writer also living in Poland. There should be an English version. In this uprising, 200,000 insurgents died and many civilians and Home Army soldiers were sent to extermination camps. An interesting fact in the uprising was taken by one African American man

Fort 7, Barbarka, Toruń. Trafiłem tam przypadkiem. Tam są groby poległych, to nie jest miejsce typu pomnik ku pamięci, a faktyczne miejsce spoczynku poległych. Pomnik też tam jest, polecam zobaczyć. Pomimo tego, że nie jest takich rozmiarów jak chociażby ten na Majdanku, robi o wiele mocniejsze wrażenie.
