Our guides, who include both art historians and museum staff, are prepared to provide exhaustive information about the collection, the latest exhibitions, and the architecture of the MSN Warsaw building. When booking a meeting, you can select the specific topics of interest to you, and the preferred language (Polish or English). Our experts will be happy to share their knowledge and passion, while leading an interactive and educational journey through history and art. Regardless of your interest—art history, artistic trends, or the museum building itself—our guides will adjust to your preferences to ensure you an unforgettable visit. 

Custom tours

Custom tours are the perfect option for those wishing to explore in depth specific aspects of the museum and contemporary art. We propose two main tracks:

Exhibitions

Visitors have a chance to experience current exhibitions in depth. Our guides will introduce you to the context of the works, their significance, and the history of the artists, encouraging reflection and dialog. It’s a great opportunity to share perceptions and examine art from different perspectives.

Building

Get to know the architecture of the museum. The design by Thomas Phifer is a state-of-the-art, minimalist space that harmonizes with the surroundings. A tour of the building will reveal its intriguing nooks and crannies, as well as interesting facts from the history of Plac Defilad. And from the panoramic views of Warsaw, you can admire the capital in all its splendor.
