The museum is working on a new permanent exhibition, and &amp;ldquo;Who Are You, Maria?&amp;rdquo; stays open until that work begins. It opened on 16 April 2025.
The Maria Skłodowska-Curie Museum on the exhibition:
She was one of the discoverers of radioactivity and changed the way we understand the structure of the atom. Her discoveries saved the lives of many cancer patients. She made history as the first woman to receive a Nobel Prize, the only woman to receive two Nobel Prizes, and the first female professor at the Sorbonne. Maria accomplished all this having been born in partitioned Poland, overcoming cultural and social barriers imposed on her gender, and being a foreigner in the country that became her home. She experienced both international fame and international criticism. She knew great love and the pain of romantic disappointment, survived the loss of her husband and child - not to mention the First World War. The life of Maria Skłodowska-Curie has long been shrouded in a romantic legend. In everything, she was the best, the first, the only one. And yet, she too had her vulnerabilities.</description><category>museums</category></item><item><title>Off the Path.

The starting point is a photograph of the couple with their wedding gift - two bicycles. From there it runs in two directions: their shared trips through meadows and forests, and the bicycle&amp;rsquo;s role in women&amp;rsquo;s emancipation around the turn of the century.
