The facility, which will regain its former glory, will eventually house an Empik store. During the reconstruction work, neon signs of Cepelia and a rooster were unexpectedly found, decorating a now non-existent outdoor advertising showcase.
The Warsaw Conservator's Office, in consultation with the investor, decided to donate these artifacts to the Neon Museum. There will also be a fragment of the original facade with a trace of the former Cepelia neon sign. The donated neon signs have now been restored and can be seen fully working in the Neon Muzeum, and a glass case will also be recreated in the Mmuseum in the new future, which will become an element of the exhibition about the history of the Pavilion and Cepelia.
Very special thanks to the Sienna 111 group and Tomasz Ślebody for their generous assistance.
