This exhibition, organised in collaboration with the Museum of the Origins of the Polish State in Gniezno, explores early medieval Polish military history (from the mid-10th to the mid-12th century). It was a time when wars were constantly being waged. The rulers of early medieval Europe, including our Piasts, regarded armed forces and conflicts as one of the most important tools of both foreign and domestic policy. This exhibition presents a comprehensive picture of the army of the First Piasts. It shows how these troops were organised, what tactics they employed, what weapons they used, against whom and how they fought. It also traces the journey of a warrior from childhood to old age.
The exhibition is held under the honorary patronage of Janusz Kubicki, Mayor of Zielona Góra
