This article identifies the forms of updating and constructing the memory of the Eastern Borderlands through material objects, referring to Jan Assmann’s concept of cultural memory, memory of the things and the process of exceeding places from the space. These considerations are supported by the statements of the formerly residents of the Eastern Borderlands taken from interviews conducted by me in 2010–2012 in Lower Silesia. Described objects as earth, spoons, rugs and Christmas decorations create symbolical, but based on the living memory milieux de mémoire in contrast to the objects placed in the chambers of memory and museums of Borderlands, which are institutionalizing and typing in the historical process the image of Borderlands, being a lieux de mémoire according to the concept of Pierre Nora.
