Hard to find an entrance. Modern building. The stuff here is really nice and helpful. The history the we should know, but hard to know. Really terrible that happens with people's life.

Great Place saying Heroism of Polish People who sacrificed their lives to save Jews!

First of it's kind. A great and well deserved tribute to those who sacrificed their own lives and lives of their young children to save their Jewish friend's.

This modern museum is an educational tribute and monument to the Polish people who died or risked death in Poland. There are many photographs and documents to examine with translations in both Polish, Hebrew and English. During the German occupation, most probably in late 1942, despite poverty and risk, the Ulmas gave shelter to eight Jews: Saul Goldman and his four sons and two daughters and a grand-daughter. On March 24, 1944, in the morning, five German gendarmes and several navy-blue policemen arrived in front of the house of the Ulmas. They were commanded by Lt. Eilert Dieken. They first shot the Jews, and next Józef and Wiktoria (who was in the seventh month of pregnancy). Then, Dieken decided to kill the 6 children. Within a few minutes, seventeen people lost their lives (including the baby whom Wiktoria started giving birth to at the moment of the execution) They were only one of many families who died or risked dying trying to hide Jews from the nearby ghetto from capture and murder. I recommend this exhibit highly.

While a bit far from major cities in Poland, this museum was just recently opened to the public (April 2016). It is dedicated to the Polish citizens who rescued their Jewish neighbors of that region during the Nazi occupation of Poland during WW II. The musem named after Joseph and Viktoria Ulma who hidden a Jewish family in their home. They were cought and executed together with their seven children and and the Jewish family they were hiding. Incredible museum and deeply tuching experience. Definitely worth the drive. Located in Markowa, Poland were the Ulma family onced lived.
