Bogdan Lisze z"l showed me the local museum in Lubaczow several times

 Bogdan  liked to visit the local museum in Lubaczow.

Their website is both in Polish and in English.

https://muzeumkresow.eu/

The word kresow means borderlands in English, and refer to the areas of Poland close to the eastern borders of the country.


Bogdan showed me how  one department of the museum presents  three of the ethnic groups who once lived in Lubaczow - the Ukrainians, the Jews and the Poles.

Worth visiting!

Here is the history of the museum, again in Polish and in English.

I realize reading this that much has happened at the museum even during the years I have visited Lubaczow.

For example this event back in 2022:

Bogdan also showed me the paintings of Marian Kopf (1926-2019) - an artist whose paintings of Jewish life in Lubaczow have become important to me.
