The museum collection consists of war exhibits from all the countless fronts and battlefields where the Polish soldiers, later employed at the Steelworks, fought. The exhibition includes the collection ranging from the time of the Silesian and Wielkopolska Uprisings to the guerrilla fighting, the Warsaw Uprising, and operation of the Polish armed forces in the East and in the West during World War II. Most of the exhibited memorabilia are authentic, and were donated by former soldiers and concentration camp prisoners. The motto of the exposition is “No More War.” In front of the museum, there is an AWS-2 heavy tank, which supported with fighting armies from Prague to Berlin, scoring six victories during the fights.
