"On November 11, we celebrate freedom, but it is our duty to also remember the path that led us to it," emphasized Minister of Culture and National Heritage Marta Cienkowska, quoted on the MKiDN website. "Thousands of soldiers died, among them Poles, often forcibly conscripted into the armies of the oppressors and forced to fight against each other. Today, war cemeteries scattered throughout the region remind us of them. Resting there are soldiers of various nationalities and armies – people divided by war, but united in death. It is here that we particularly understand how great a value freedom is and how high a price needed to be paid for it," Marta Cienkowska noted. "Therefore, on National Independence Day, I announce that a Museum of World War I will be established in Gorlice. It will be a place that will tell not only about great battles and tragedies but, most importantly, about people – about Polish fates, the tragedy of war, and the events that opened the way to independence for us," Cienkowska informed. #MuzeumWojny #HistoriaPolski #FrontWschodni (translated)
