The Stacja Muzeum is located at the former
During the interwar period the museum's headquarters were located at Nowy Zjazd Street.
The museum was reestablished at the present site, as Railway Museum in Warsaw (Muzeum Kolejnictwa w Warszawie), in 1972.
On 30 July 2009, PKP S.A. the Polish state railway company served notice to quit on the Museum authorities requiring them to vacate their current location by 31 August 2009.[2] However, as of May 2015, the museum remained in place and open to the public.
The museum was disestablished on 31 March 2016[3] and on 1 April a new institution, Stacja Muzeum, opened, taking over the exhibits and other assets.[4]
There were plans to move Stacja Muzeum to a new, purpose-built object at the Odolany railway depot[5] but the idea was eventually dropped. Another plan was to build new premises for some of the exhibits at the current site as part of the redevelopment but this idea also came to nothing[6] and, as of August 2021[update], Stacja Muzeum is still open at the old site.
