the Poster Museum at Wilanów was opened as the world’s first poster museum, a branch of the National Museum in Warasaw.Presently the Museum boasts one of the largest collections of art posters in the world, consisting of over 55,000 items.

The collection of Polish posters of 1892-2002 contains about 30,000 items and is the most complete set of works in the world considered to be a canon in this area of artistic activity. The collection of foreign posters, which has emerged mostly due to grants from the Warsaw Biennale and gifts from artists from world over, is also considered as the one of the finest collections of world art posters.

I`ve been there and I really recommend the visit, worth every cent.
