WELCOME - to Poland's First Neon Museum - which is dedicated to the documentation and preservation of Poland's cold war era neon signs.
The documentation project and rescue of neon artefacts began in 2005, and our efforts have resulted in a growing interest in the topic of neon. We have brought the subject of Polish Cold War Neon to greater public and media consciousness by numerous exhibitions and publications.
After years spent in a temporary storage space, the Neon Muzeum found a permanent home in Soho Factory, Warsaw. We opened our doors for the first time during the European Museum Nights (19th May 2012) where we attracted over 10,000 visitors in a single night.
The Neon Muzeum is a private initiative and does not currently receive public funds. Therefore, your donations directly finance our mission to preserve and save these unique neon letterforms.
Our team of energetic volunteers are on hand to assist visitors and tour groups and keep the Neon Muzeum open 6 days a week - as well as hosting other special events and members evenings.
We hope you enjoy your visit to the Neon Muzeum - it is truly one of a kind !
Thank you!
