In this year marks the 30th anniversary of the exhibition "Atlantis of the North. Former East Prussia in photography from 1864-1944", which was created by the poet Kazimierz Brakoniecki, co-founder Olsztyn Cultural Community "Borussia" – one of the the first civic initiatives in Poland undertaking reflection on the past of the lands currently Polish, but until 1945 German. Brakoniecki prepared it in 1993, because very dynamic changes were taking place in Poland.

Eventually it has become possible to freely create narratives: bottom-up, local, independent of previously imposed patterns. Exhibition to which the Historical Museum in Ełk returns, can be considered a symbol of that time.

Vernissage exhibition borrowed from the Bureau of Art Exhibitions in Olsztyn entitled. Atlantis of the North Old East Prussia in photography from the years 1864-1944, will take place on March 28, 2023 (Tuesday) at 18.00.

In the program includes an original guided tour of Kazimierz Brakoniecki after the exhibition.

Exhibition You will be open from Tuesday to Sunday from 9:30 – 4:30 p.m. until May 3 inclusive.
