Abstract

The paper discusses the activities of the Ludwik Zamenhof Culture Centre in Bialystok. It was founded as part of the 94th World Esperanto Congress held in Bialystok in 2009 and it is a souvenir of it. This city institution is a part of the Bialystok Culture Centre. The Centre’s mission is to promote knowledge on Ludwik Zamenhof, his ideas and Esperanto, the language he created. Following Ludwik Zamenhof ’s idea, we also strive to be a centre for dialogue and understanding across boundaries for the representatives of different world views, faiths and attitudes. The Centre implements its mission through exhibition, educational and publishing activities. Its offer includes a visit to the permanent exhibition “Bialystok of the young Zamenhof ” and numerous temporary exhibitions, concerts, panel discussions, lectures and literature promotional actions.
