About

Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw is a municipal cultural institution. It was brought into being by the ordinance from April 6, 2005, issued by the Minister of Culture and National Heritage.


Since 1 January 2023, the MSN has been an institution run by the City of Warsaw. Between 2006 and 2022, the museum was co-managed by the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage (which sponsored and coordinated the museum's day-to-day activities) and the City of Warsaw (which provided the museum with temporary premises, sponsored selected projects and was responsible for the construction of the future museum building). The MSN's destination headquarters is being built on the north side of Defilad Square, in front of the Palace of Culture and Science. It is scheduled to open in 2024.
