The article deals with the contemporary museum landscape on the territory of historical Masuria. Assuming – first of all – that the historical pillars of Masurian identity before the Second World War comprised the Polish language and evangelical denomination, and – secondly – that museums are institutions whose purpose is to archive, select and present artifacts as well as construct narration about the cultural memory of a group, the author of the article poses the question of the current presence of evangelical themes at the exhibitions of selected Masurian museums. An exhibition is understood here as a message addressed to receivers, and therefore the author uses the method of semiotic analysis of the visual stratum of selected exhibitions. The choice of the exhibitions discussed in the article is limited to museums located at operating evangelical churches (Museum of the Reformation in Mikołajki) or in former sacral buildings abandoned by evangelicals after 1945 (exhibitions on the premises of the open-air ethnographical museum in Olsztynek).
