Warsaw Museum of Computers and Games

Warsaw Museum of Computers and Games
(Warszawskie Muzeum Komputerów i Gier)

I spent a few days on vacation in Warsaw, Poland.

Naturally, I looked around the city for places related to retro computing.

I found an interesting place: Warszawskie Muzeum Komputerów i Gier, or the Warsaw Museum of Computers and Games.

The place had lots of game consoles and computers, and you could try and play everything.

While there I also met a couple of the venue’s guides, and it was nice to exchange a few words about retro computing with them — and of course I told them about my own collection. In particular we talked about the Commodore 64, and how in Finland the C64 was known as ”Tasavallan tietokone (the republic’s computer).”

My wife and I also played a round of ping pong, in the style of the late ’70s.

If you visit Warsaw, be sure to stop by and soak up the retro computers in person.
