Great, very good museum about Silesia. High-quality exhibits. We can only recommend!!

Exciting exhibitions on the history and development of a German-Polish region in the heart of Europe. The staff was very friendly.

Ein hochinteressantes Museum, äußerst informativ, sehr nette und engagierte Mitarbeiterinnen dort kennenlernen dürfen. Da ein Teil der Familie meiner Frau aus der Region kommt (bis 1946) war es für uns beide heute besonders informativ. Ein Museum, welches der Völkerständigung dient.

I was there with my wife. There were very interesting things from my old home that I didn't know. It's worth going if you want to get to know the history of Upper Silesia.

Lovingly furnished museum over 3 floors. Lots of information about Upper Silesia. Often special exhibitions on Upper Silesia and other topics. There is now an exhibition about Upper Silesia and the division between Poland and Germany after the First and Second World Wars. On the upper floor there is information about personalities who came from Upper Silesia. Some are world-famous and award winners. There is also an exhibition on the Prussian military on the upper floor. Since Upper Silesia was and is rich in mineral resources, there is information about mining in the basement. Also to a porcelain factory that once existed here. Very friendly staff. There is also a small coffee kitchen with coffee, tea and cold drinks. Free parking spaces are available in front of the house.

A super well-stocked museum. Very interesting exhibits. Friendly staff. Admission is perfect at 5 euros

German history in Eastern Europe with connecting activities between East and West. Interesting exhibitions for young and old. Anyone who wants to understand history is well advised here.

Niestety przybyłem na miejsce tuż po zamknięciu, ale zwiedziłem eksponaty przedstawione na zewnątrz muzeum. Miło się zrobiło kiedy zobaczyłem dwie Nyski🤩 daje piątkę bo wewnątrz muzeum jest zapewne jeszcze ciekawiej😉

Progressive und moderne Sichtweise auf Oberschlesien. Exponate könnten besser beschriftet sein und auch der Rundgang ist etwas wild, kein ersichtlicher roter Faden. Sonderausstellung hingegen erstklassig. Unbedingt mit Führung machen. Bitte bleibt so progressiv, es gibt genug antiquierte Ansichten zu diesem Thema.

Auf jeden Fall sehenswert...immer schöne besondere Angebote..

Ciekawe miejsce dla zainteresowanych historią

We both did escape rooms back to back. This is possible with reservation. The Escsperooms are nicely laid out and also focus on learning something about the topic of Upper Silesia. Both escape rooms are connected to a story. The Border Crossers exhibition is also very informative and attractively presented. The museum staff is very nice and helpful.

We visited the escape room Grandpa's Stube and then looked at the temporary exhibition and collection. The escape room was a lot of fun for us (two adults). It took a few test runs to control it with the iPad, but then we understood how to use it and were able to solve the room well. We thought the souvenir at the end was great, a very sweet idea. The exhibition “Border Crossers. Everyday Life in a Divided Country” is presented in an extremely appealing way. It is designed to be very accessible. The processes surrounding the division and everyday life were made accessible through the interactive elements, the many photos and maps. I had no prior knowledge of the topic and felt thoroughly informed after visiting the exhibition.

Our visit to the Upper Silesian State Museum in Ratingen last week was a truly fascinating experience. The museum offers a deep insight into the rich history and diverse culture of Upper Silesia. As soon as we entered, we were impressed by the impressive architecture and the inviting ambience of the museum. The exhibitions span different eras and subject areas, and each section impressively tells the history and heritage of this fascinating region. We were particularly impressed by the extensive collection of artifacts, works of art and historical documents, which offer a vivid insight into the life and traditions of the Upper Silesian population. From traditional craftsmanship to significant historical events, the diversity and significance of Upper Silesia's heritage is impressively presented. The interactive exhibits and multimedia presentations further enriched our visit by allowing us to delve deeper into history and develop a better understanding of the cultural diversity of Upper Silesia.

Wir haben den Escape Room ausprobiert. Was für ein Spass 😊!!! Interaktiv etwas über Kultur, Land und Leute gelernt und viel gelacht 😂. Eine tolle Idee für die wir uns herzlich bedanken und die wir sehr gern weiterempfehlen!
