Symbol of Polish resistance during World War II, visiting Pawiak prison is a chilling and encouraging experience.
The remains of the basement of the prison are now converted to a museum. One part is an exhibition about life in prison, and it radiates the determination of the Polish people to fight the Nazis, to fight for their freedom, even though they were imprisoned in a place that knew no exit other than deportation to a concentration camp. The other part is a corridor with a few bare cells and their stories. It is surely a relief to step outside into the light after having been even one hour inside the dark place. At least the visitor can get out.
