Army Museum in Bialystok - Grant from the ‘Culture without barriers’ programme

We are happy to announce that the Army Museum has received a grant of 77,900 PLN in the ‘Culture without barriers’ project, implemented as part of the Operational Programme Knowledge Education Development 2014-2020.

For the purposes of the above action, the Museum staff will be trained and there will be meetings with representatives of communities with special needs. Accessibility tools will be implemented that will make a lasting contribution to improving the accessibility of the facility. Among other things, a tyfloplan dedicated to visually impaired visitors and a portable FM system and induction loop for hearing impaired visitors will be installed at the Museum headquarters. A special place in the project will be given to ensuring accessibility for people in the area of understanding, including children and young people with intellectual disabilities and autism. With a view to working with these audiences, the project authors have planned to purchase an alternative communication programme and to make thematic sensory boards.

Programme implementation date: July 2022 – June 2023

On Sunday 17 July from 12 noon to 5 p.m., we would like to invite you to take part in a Day with the Fire Brigade in the Military Park! This will be an opportunity to visit the newly opened Military Park, where large-scale objects from our collection are on display.

Uniformed members of the Białystok State Fire Service will also be available to visitors on that day. During the meeting, visitors will be able to talk to firefighters and see up close the equipment of the Białystok Fire and Rescue Unit No. 2.

We also encourage you to spend time outdoors in the green area of the Military Park. You are welcome to bring your own blankets and picnic baskets.
