_

Warsaw Museum of Prague is the first museum facility on the right bank of the Vistula at ul. Targowa 50/52, located in one of the oldest preserved dwellings in the right bank of Warsaw, with a unique prayer ensemble (preserved polychromies), in the immediate vicinity of the Różycki Bazaar (the oldest functioning market of Warsaw). The objects of the project are unique and unique in the country. In the buildings at ul. There was a former Jewish prayer house on the walls of the prayer hall, where fragments of paintings depicting Jews praying at the Wall of Tears in Jerusalem and Rachel's Tomb in Bethlehem were preserved. Prayer rooms with preserved polychromies are a unique monument on the scale of Warsaw and Mazowieckie voivodship. Preserved prayer is crucial for the functioning of the Warsaw Museum of Prague. It is a valuable source for the coloring of paintings in Warsaw prayer houses, known only from black and white photographs. It is also one of the testimonies of the multicultural neighborhood. Already at the moment it is one of the fixed points of the tours of the Judaica trail. The richness of the cultural heritage of this area, the preserved settlement continuity, the elements of urban folklore as well as the awareness of one's own identity, which can be observed among the contemporary inhabitants of Prague, a certain exoticness and terrain, are the starting point for extensive research and documentation. All these qualities are the still attractive tourist attractions of the right bank of Warsaw, which the museum has a chance to raise. This multiculturality will be particularly prominent in the permanent exhibition of the Museum.
