By taking a walk through Old Town\u2019s tenement buildings \u2013 at your own pace and following a route you selected yourself \u2013 each visitor can assemble their own story of Warsaw. It will also be possible to select one of the four routes created in cooperation with people whose life and activity bear a strong connection to the town.<\/p>\n<p>Visitors will also be able to choose the main route. The route encompasses all rooms and key items which are deemed especially significant by curators due to the story of their origin, direct connection to the history of the town, unique character, or the figure of their creator or founder. The main route was designed especially to accommodate visitors with vision or hearing impairments.<\/p>\n<h1>The Warsaw Data<\/h1>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/muzeumwarszawy.pl\/en\/warsaw-data\/\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-16391 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.muzeumwarszawy.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/MW_kampania-Rzeczy-warszawskie_www3-1024x423.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"423\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nData allows us to verify common stereotypes and popular opinions about Warsaw, its inhabitants, and its urban arrangement.
