Muzeum Legii Warszawa (w remoncie), Warsaw

At the Polish Army Stadium, the Legia Warsaw Museum is devoted to the history of Legia Warszawa. It opened on the twenty-first of April, two thousand six, as the club marked its ninetieth anniversary. The museum grew from Wiktor Bołba’s initiative, and it has borne his name since January two thousand twenty-three.

In October two thousand ten, the collection moved into its present quarters beneath the northern Żyleta stand, within the new stadium’s office-and-service wing. Its displays hold several hundred objects: trophies, match balls, football kits, photographs, and mementoes connected with Lucjan Brychczy, Kazimierz Deyna, and Kazimierz Górski. A Żyleta display retains benches and seats salvaged from the earlier stand during the stadium rebuild.

Football provides much of the collection, but boxing, wrestling, and fencing also reveal the club’s many sporting sections. Among the standout pieces is Andrzej Wroński’s gold medal from Olympic wrestling in Seoul, won in nineteen eighty-eight.
