    The museum was wunderful, the caricatures were clever and funny. We had a great time and would definitely go there again. We even had the honor of meeting the new director who was very excited and proud of the current exhibitions. It was obvious that he cares about the place very much and runs it well 😊 10/10 would reccomend.

    The museum is small, but contains a lot of works. Not only walls but also multimedia presentations are used to present the collections. You can also buy professional literature on site.

    It is an interesting but small exhibition

    Amazing gallery with reflective drawings that show universal problems of every human being, such as loneliness, a sense of helplessness and the desire for freedom. Interesting artworks worth visiting. ❤️

    (Translated by Google) I just got to Satyrkon 2020, the works made a great impression on me. However, I expected (from the description) many hundreds of works, and here only two modest poster rooms and one small sculpture. A very nice lady ticket collector, unfortunately she does not talk about the works, so the visitor is left alone with the works. The ticket costs only PLN 10, so it's worth going anyway. :) (Original) Akurat załapałam się na Satyrkon 2020, prace wywarły na mnie duże wrażenie. Jednak spodziewałam się (po opisie) wielu setek prac, a tu tylko dwie skromne sale plakatów i jedna mała rzeźba. Bardzo sympatyczna Pani bileterka, niestety nie opowiada o pracach, więc zwiedzający zostaje sam z pracami. Bilet kosztuje tylko 10zł, więc warto i tak warto się wybrać. :)

    (Translated by Google) It is hard to get an unambiguous opinion, the museum is tiny, modest - 2 small rooms - but trying to make the most of their space and fit as much work as possible. A huge downside is that there is no such thing as a permanent exhibition, a review of the work of the most famous Polish cartoonists. Visiting with friends I came across an exhibition devoted to Ignacy Witz - a cartoonist and illustrator of books ... and basically I can say that I experienced disappointment - in the museum of caricature I did not see a single caricature ... (Original) Trudno o jednoznaczną opinię, muzeum malutkie, skromniutkie - 2 nieduże sale - ale starające się wykorzystać jak najlepiej swoją powierzchnię i zmieścić jak najwięcej prac. Ogromnym minusem jest to, że nie ma czegoś takiego jak ekspozycja stała, przegląd twórczości najbardziej znanych polskich karykaturzystów. Ja, zwiedzając ze znajomymi trafiłem na wystawę poświęconą Ignacemu Witzowi - rysownikowi i ilustratorowi książek...i w zasadzie mogę stwierdzić, że przeżyłem rozczarowanie - w muzeum karykatury nie obejrzałem ani jednej karykatury...

    Free admissions on Tuesday. The museum has a small collection which deals with solitude, sarcasm, political satire, and so on. Worth a visit!

  • 5/5 Ana I. 4 years ago on Google • 48 reviews
    This was an amazing experience. The artworks were so inspiring, funny, intelligent.

  • 5/5 Lola W. 6 months ago on Google • 35 reviews
    Great experience hidden in a little street close to the Old Town. No permanent exhibition, temporary ones exchange every month or so. Everything translated into English, free entrance on Tuesdays. Tickets are not overpriced though, it's worth to step by for a little piece of art and culture.

    If you love art, you have to visit this place. It's a small, central museum, exhibiting drawings and watercolors most of them in a caricature/comic style. You will see both Polish and foreign artists, carefully curated. I recommend this place.

  • 5/5 piotr w. 5 years ago on Google • 27 reviews
    Small museum but neat, on the very quiet back street of old town, would recommend even only for seeing that beautiful street!

  • 5/5 Karolina K. 1 month ago on Google • 25 reviews New
    Worth a visit! The exhibitions turn into a caricature museum. The current satirical exhibition is a collection of events from 2023. I think that this particular one will be appreciated more by an older audience, but nevertheless an excellent collection of illustrations. Thank you for the warm welcome of the museum employees and the director. Thanks to them, there is a very nice atmosphere in the museum. The caricature museum has more workshop classes for children elsewhere, this information is probably on the website. However, please remember that exhibitions change and new ones may be fully appreciated by a younger viewer. 😉 5/5 from me

    Interesting impression. You seem to be inside Facebook) The museum is open on Sunday, it was a nice opportunity to visit it.

  • 5/5 Ekaterina A. 6 months ago on Google • 23 reviews

  • 5/5 Eunice V. 2 years ago on Google • 23 reviews
    Very interesting exhibition. The selection is really interesting and the owners are nice, the ticket is also very affordable, specifically for students. Would come back for new exhibitions

  • 5/5 Natalia R. 1 month ago on Google • 12 reviews New
    cool, but these are memes, not caricatural portraits XDDD

  • 1/5 Kamila W. 1 month ago on Google • 5 reviews New
    LET IT GO. SERIOUSLY. Absolute waste of time and money. Don't do this to yourself. We were counting on a satirical drawing over the years, but we got dozens of better or worse political drawings. It looked as if someone had entered a political Facebook group for jocks and printed out the content. If it had been an additional exhibition, fine, but that was it. Charging PLN 15 per person for this is pure theft.

    (Translated by Google) Little-known other museum in terms of exhibitions in a side street I recommend. (Original) Mało znane inne muzeum pod względem wystaw w boczej uliczce polecam.

  • 2/5 adnan d. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) There are very few (around 100) cartoons. And mainly II. World War II. They made all the information under the caricature only in Polish. English should have been well explained. (Original) Çok az sayıda (100 civarında) karikatür var. Ve ağırlıklı olarak II. Dünya Savaşı anlatılıyor. Karikatür altındaki tüm bilgileri sadece Leh'çe yapmışlar. İngilizce de açıklama olması gerekirdi.

  • 5/5 Svitlana C. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) An interactive approach to writing cartoons. A lot has been written in a different style. There are two rooms. Very comfortable atmosphere. A peculiar approach to caricatures. The artist was born and studied in Lviv, was a critic. There are days when free admission. Want to see an extraordinary approach to caricatures, you are here. Recommend! (Original) Интерессный подход к написанию карикатур. Много написано в разном стиле. Работает два зала. Очень уютная атмосфера. Своеобразный подход к карикатурам. Родился и учился художник во Львове, был критиком. Есть дни когда бесплатный вход. Хотите увидеть неординарный подход к карикатурам, вам сюда. Рекомендую!

  • 5/5 Neil F. 3 years ago on Google
    Nice small museum with interesting pieces. Worth half an hour.

  • 3/5 Luca M. 4 years ago on Google
    The art is very-very nice and pleasant to look at, but the museum is very small and it has absolutely no explanations in English, meaning that foreign visitors will probably miss out on the most important parts of the experience.

  • 4/5 Moran K. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Very small museum When we were only one exhibition on two floors (small rooms) Entrance prices 9 zlotys per person 5 zlotys for students, children, etc. The museum staff we met are not English speakers The exhibits are not translated into English Lucky you can understand cartoon even without understanding the text .... (Original) מוזיאון קטן מאוד כשהיינו הייתה תערוכת יחיד אחת בלבד בשתי קומות (חדרים קטנים) מחירי כניסה 9 זלוטי לאדם 5 זלוטי לסטודנטים, ילדים וכד' עובדי המוזיאון שפגשנו אינם דוברי אנגלית התערוכות לא מתורגמות לאנגלית מזל שניתן להבין קריקטורה גם ללא הבנת הטקסט....

  • 5/5 Piotr K. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) A tiny museum at the back of the Royal Route, great works of famous and respected artists, not only from Poland. You can laugh, but also think. I definitely recommend it! A must-see in the Warsaw sightseeing program !!! (Original) Malutkie muzeum na tyłach Traktu Królewskiego,wspaniałe prace znanych i cenionych artystów,nie tylko z Polski. Można się pośmiać,ale i zamyślić. Zdecydowanie polecam! Obowiązkowa pozycja w programie zwiedzania Warszawy!!!

  • 5/5 Monika S. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Very interesting works, sometimes dealing with difficult topics. There is something to discuss and what to explore while visiting. Very different techniques and equally diverse issues. I was expecting a bit more harvest, but the ones that are quite impressive. (Original) Bardzo ciekawe prace, nieraz poruszające trudną tematykę. Jest o czym dyskutować i co zgłębiać w trakcie zwiedzania. Bardzo różne techniki i równie zróżnicowana problematyka. Spodziewałam się nieco większej ilości zbiorów, ale te, które są robią spore wrażenie.

  • 5/5 Katarzyna S. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The museum is tiny, inexpensive, but the caricatures are well selected and suitable for discussions with children around 8-10 years old. I spent less than an hour and a half in it, but for that to be the case, you need to be open to exploring the details. The museum is not afraid of difficult topics and is not politically correct. Like a breath of fresh air. (Original) Muzeum maleńkie, niedrogie, ale karykatury są świetnie wybrane, nadają się też do dyskusji z dziećmi około 8-10 letnimi. Spędziłam w nim niecałe półtorej godziny, ale żeby tak było, to trzeba się otworzyć na zgłębianie szczegółów. Muzeum nie boi się trudnych tematów i nie jest poprawne politycznie. Jak powiew świeżego powietrza.

  • 5/5 Gonzalo T. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) A very small, but very successful museum. And Kozia Street is also absolutely worth seeing. Such narrow streets are a rarity in Warsaw. Especially in the summer season you can make a quiet detour near the Königsweg. (Original) Ein sehr kleines, aber sehr gelungenes Museum. Und auch die Kozia-Straße ist absolut sehenswert. In Warschau sind solche engen Gassen eine Seltenheit. Vor allem in der Sommersaison kann man so in der Nähe des Königsweges einen ruhigen Abstecher machen.

    (Translated by Google) Few works, I was there twenty years ago, there were more posters and drawings of famous artists (including E. Lipiński, A. Mleczka and many others).

    (Translated by Google) It's always worth coming to see the new exhibition. Of course, a sense of humor is a subjective matter, but you can be surprised that despite the passage of decades, certain issues remain invariably a grateful topic for satirists and all sorts of humorists 😉 (Original) Zawsze warto wpaść, żeby zobaczyć nową wystawę. Oczywiście poczucie humoru jest kwestią subiektywną, ale można się zdziwić, że mimo upływu nawet dziesiątek lat pewne kwestie pozostają niezmiennie wdzięcznym tematem dla satyryków i wszelkiej maści humorystów 😉

(Original) Muzeum Karykatury w którym jest mało karykatur. Dużo jest za to śmiesznych rysunków z lat 50-tych. Np. "Papier idzie ,potem wraca ,oto biurokraty pracy".
