ARCHAEOLOGICAL MUSEUM IN POZNAŃ – Reserve ”Genius Loci”
The reserve was opened on June 30, 2012. The area of the land is 1002 square meters. The neo-modernist exhibition pavilion itself is 631 sq m. The fully interactive exhibition, equipped with multimedia kiosks and holographic projectors, introduces viewers to the original buildings of Ostrów Tumski from the 10th century. The exhibition begins with a cinema room with 3D technology, which shows a film about the beginnings of Poznań and the archaeological research carried out in the area. Then you go to the rooms equipped with glass floors, under which the rampart of the Poznań castle from the 10th century and the foundations of the wall of bishop Jan Lubrański are exposed. The whole thing is to ensure direct contact of visitors with historical mementoes of the beginnings of the Polish state and the oldest castle buildings. In addition to the permanent exhibition, the facility has exhibition areas for temporary exhibitions. There is a small garden with benches by the western wall.
All permanent and temporary exhibitions will be available, including the open-air exhibition in Ostrów Tumski, the Church of the Blessed Virgin Mary in summo and the exhibition on the palas of Mieszko I.
We also recommend audio guides in English, German and French.
