The exhibition highlights the participation of Polish women in military service and combat operations during the Second World War. It focuses on the real, yet often overlooked, role of women within the Polish Army, showcasing their training, frontline service, and their roles in command and logistics.

The core of the exhibition consists of memorabilia from women who served in Berling’s Army, including the Emilia Plater Independent Women’s Battalion. These include original uniforms from 1944–1946, documents, decorations and photographs. The exhibition also covers the participation of Polish women in the Polish Armed Forces in the West, the underground resistance and the Auxiliary Women’s Service, creating a factual

and well-documented picture of women’s contribution to the history of the Polish military in the 20th century.
