Exploseum is a museum in Bydgoszcz on on military technology, located close to the Bydgoszcz Industrial and Technological Park, Zachem Chemical Factory and the Bydgoszcz Forest. It was a place known for inhuman forced labour involving over 40,000 workers of the former DAG Fabrik Bromberg. Out of several hundred buildings that in 1939-1945 were part of a huge concern providing the Third Reich with nitroglycerin, trinitrotoluene and smokeless powder, a dozen or so were separated and connected by tunnels. One of them is now the Eploseum museum, a second one is a permanent ruin and illustrates the mark left by time on the buildings and preserves

    The Exploseum in Bydgoszcz, Poland, offers visitors an intriguing look into the industrial history of the region, particularly focusing on the production of explosives and ammunition during World War II. Located in a former Nazi munitions factory, the museum provides a comprehensive overview of the site's past and its impact on the local community.

    Visitors appreciate the well-preserved buildings and the extensive network of underground tunnels, which create an atmospheric and somewhat eerie experience. The exhibits are informative, detailing the factory's operations, the living conditions of forced laborers, and the technological aspects of explosives production.

    Many reviewers commend the museum for its historical significance and educational value. The guided tours, available in multiple languages, are often highlighted as engaging and insightful, helping visitors to fully understand the complex history of the site.

    On the downside, some visitors mention that the museum can be quite dark and cold, especially in the underground sections, so appropriate clothing is recommended. Additionally, a few reviewers note that some areas might be challenging for those with mobility issues.

    Overall, the Exploseum is generally regarded as an important historical site that offers a sobering yet educational experience. It provides a valuable perspective on a less-known aspect of World War II history and industrial heritage.
