Exhibition summary
This exhibition, 'Neighbors from Beyond the Fence,' is dedicated to the history of Robotniczy Klub Sportowy "Marymont," one of Warsaw's oldest and most distinguished sports clubs. It showcases the club's legacy across numerous sports disciplines and the efforts made to preserve its valuable trophies and documents.
Curatorial context
The exhibition "Neighbors from Beyond the Fence" focuses on the rich history of the Robotniczy Klub Sportowy (RKS) "Marymont," a prominent sports club in Warsaw. At its peak, RKS Marymont was active in over a dozen sports, with kayaking, archery, figure skating, speed skating, fencing, and wrestling being leading disciplines. Although post-transition changes affected its operations, several sections, including figure skating, speed skating, archery, football, fencing, and table tennis, continued into the early 21st century.
The Museum of Sport and Tourism initiated a campaign that, in collaboration with the OSiR m.st. Warszawy in Żoliborz, successfully preserved many valuable sports trophies, documents, and photographs. These conserved items form the core of the exhibition. The collection is further enriched by significant donations from Maria Mączyńska, a multiple world archery champion, and Urszula Parulska, widow of Ryszard Parulski, a two-time Olympic medalist in fencing.
