A huge thank you to everyone who joined us for the opening of Warsaw Calling: Uprising 1944 last night.

It was a very special evening as we came together to hear the stories of courage, resistance and sacrifice behind this powerful exhibition.

A special thank you to David Catterall, Deputy Lord-Lieutenant of Greater Manchester, for officially opening the exhibition and helping us mark this important occasion.

Warsaw Calling: Uprising 1944 is now open

This powerful, new exhibition explores one of the most significant acts of resistance during the Second World War.

On 1 August 1944, the Polish underground resistance rose against N**i occupation. For 63 days, the Polish Home Army fought vastly superior German forces in a determined attempt to liberate Warsaw.

Curated by the Polish Underground Movement Study Trust (PUMST), Warsaw Calling: Uprising 1944 brings together personal stories, rare archival material and striking images. It explores the experiences of those who lived through the uprising, including the many young people who risked their lives in the fight against occupation.

Alongside the main exhibition, Northern Heroines, presented by Polonia Northern England , tells the stories of three remarkable Polish women who came to Britain after the war and built new lives in Northern England.

📅 On display until 28 February 2027
🎟️ Normal admission rates apply.
