The Warsaw Fotoplastikon is one of Europe's oldest operating stereoscopic theaters, functioning continuously in a quiet courtyard on Aleje Jerozolimskie since 1905. Having survived World War II unscathed, its rotating Kaiserpanorama mechanism displays vintage three-dimensional glass slides to 24 viewers at once. The historic collection preserves thousands of rare 3D stereoscopic images capturing pre-war Warsaw and early 20th-century journeys.
