Museum of Eastern Lands in Lublin

The Museum of Eastern Lands is a meeting place with the past and present, a place to share personal experiences, family stories, documents and souvenirs. It is a place to search for ancestors and rebuild broken relationships. The concept of the permanent exhibition of the Museum of Eastern Lands in Lublin is based on the interpenetration of historical time, space and ideas and phenomena. The exhibition presents the eastern lands as a space subject to dynamic changes — with constantly changing borders, but also as a place of broadly understood cultural encounters, coexistence of people of different social, ethnic and national origins and at the same time the image of these lands as a refuge, the mother of Polishness. The future museum will play a key role in building a common memory of Eastern lands and their multicultural heritage, building a sense of identity. An interesting solution is to treat the architecture and history of the building itself as an element of the exhibition. Visitors, through VR glasses, will be able to move into the chosen period of life of the building and the city, discovering the architecture, costumes, decorations and events of bygone times
