The European Solidarity Centre is the only museum in Poland honoured with THE COUNCIL OF EUROPE MUSEUM PRIZE (2016), which has been awarded annually for 40 years to museums that have made significant contributions to the understanding of Europe’s cultural heritage. According to the jury of the prize, the ECS is "a fascinating example of a cultural institution working to promote freedom and solidarity" and "the events it recounts and its programme make it a forum for contemporary Europe."
