Most of Warsaw was destroyed by the German forces during the Second World War. The city of Warsaw was rebuilt between the 1950s and 1970 without any help from outside. Some of the landmarks had been finally reconstructed as late as the 1980s.

The reconstruction of Warsaw in 1945 was an attempt to rebuild not only the individual monuments, but also to restore the entire historical makeup of the city. Many years later, the revitalisation of its Old Town made it onto the UNESCO World Heritage List – but back then, in the wake of the wartime destruction, this was far from obvious.

Trudna dziś do wyobrażenia bieda i nieuchwytna elegancja kobiet, furmanki na ulicach, sklepy w ruinach i tłumy na nadwiślańskich plażach. Na swoje dziesiąte urodziny Dom Spotkań z Historią przygotował wystawę ?Na nowo. Warszawiacy 1945-55?. Wcześniej w DSH były już wystawy pokazujące Warszawę pierwszych lat powojennych. Pokazywały zniszczenia i odbudowę miasta. Autorki najnowszej wystawy Katarzyna Madoń-Mitzner z DSH i Anna Brzezińska-Skarżyńska z PAP skupiły się na życiu codziennym warszawiaków. Zdjęcia pochodzą ze zbiorów Polskiej Agencji Prasowej. Wystawę będzie można oglądać w siedzibie DSH przy Karowej od soboty 20 lutego. U nas już dziś pokazujemy wybrane zdjęcia.

We are all taught at school about the communism as a social system but do we really know what it meant for those who had a chance to experience it themselves? Empty stores, propaganda, censorship but also a universe of funny things which tried hard to be better than what it was.
Po wojnie zastanawiano się nad pozostawieniem całego Starego Miasta w ruinie jako świadectwa hitlerowskiego barbarzyństwa. Na szczęście konserwatorzy zabytków storpedowali ten pomysł, bo wówczas cała historia Warszawy, jej kultura zostałyby wymazane – opowiada Bogdan Wyporek, architekt, członek zespołu urbanistów, którzy odbudowywali stolicę.
