It’s moved! There’s still some stuff outside the building, so I went to have a look and was sent on my way be security pretty rapidly. They need to update the new location online.

It's surprisingly more people don't visit this outdoor museum of military craft. It is right next to the national museum and it is free. Definitely worth a walk through to see tanks, missile launchers, planes and helicopters.

There are some nice machines like the IS-2, Mig-29 and Il-2, but the exponats aren't in great condition and in general, it's not a particularly impressive war museum.

The indoor exhibiton is closed, but there's a lot to see outside. Everything from planes, millitary helicopters and tanks. Perfect for people who love historic millitary vehicles and weapons. It is also free entrance to the outdoor exhibition.

The museum is very best, the location is perfect. Here you can the old weapons of 2nd world war. A good memory to see in Warsaw. If you have free time than this is the best place to spend a good time. Recommended.

To be honest?
Not enough vehicles, and not all of them are in good shape. Also, there's not much to see from the inside. A Russian cargoplane and the 'Kubuś' armoured car. I would be happy to see more.

A walk through a memory lane. For a history fan a great review but by today's standards a bit static
Waiting for the new building and end with scarce space.

Perhaps if you are an enthusiast of the military history this museum can be interesting for you. Significantly below my expectations for a modern museum. I do not recommend it.

Hot on the heels of the National Museum, I quickly ventured into the war Museum, a stones throw away............
Immediately noticeable is that on display outside, and free to wander around, is a very decent collection of all sorts of armory and wea.. Read more »ponry of tanks, rockets, bombs, jets and planes.....a good collection of the beauty of war! Good to walk around and take a selfie....... I pretended I was in Ukraine, and some actually believed me!
To go into the museum itself, it costs 20 Zloty (4 Euros), a very reasonable price.
The museum is very well spaced out and you head in one main direction and end of on a good tour of various campaigns that Poland was involved in........from the Warsaw uprising, the WW2 campaigns (In the UK as well-Polish air bombers), the fights with old foes like Russia (and Ukraine, which was surprising to me), .......and a general overview of the style of the uniforms and weapons of those times.... its quite extensive and very informative, with descriptions in Polish, obviously, and in English.
It was a long walk around, over an hour or more, and it was very good.
The only negative I might have is that there could be some interactive side to the museum, something more hands on - try on some similar styled war time uniforms, or hold some replica weapons, etc, etc.....
Overall, well worth a look, if for nothing else to see and learn about some of Poland's long war time history.

Very nice military museum. It has a lot of military equipment and vehicles from the polish and Soviet army. It's free , if you are in Warsaw you should take a visit , it is worth it especially if you like military vehicles and military history
