To give an accurate description of what has never occurred is not merely the proper occupation of the historian, but the inalienable privilege of any man of parts and culture.

International Dialogue Center in Krasnogruda

Since the beginning Czesław Miłosz has been a spiritual patron of the project of founding the Center. The manor-house in Krasnogruda, situated at the Polish-Lithuanian border, close to Sejny, once belonged to the relatives of Miłosz's mother. It is the most desirable site of the future Center, because it will focus on multicultural heritage of Kingdom of Poland and Grand Duchy of Lithuania and its new understanding in the context of unifying Europe.

House of the Borderland, a new site of the Center "Borderland of Arts, Cultures, Nations," was founded in a reconstructed building of a long history. In Sejny it was called an Old Post Office, because for many years, starting in the late 19th century, there was a post office. More...


First synagogue in Sejny that was wooden and covered by shingle, was built in 1780s. In 1885 rabbi Moses Becalel Luria initiated the construction of a brick temple that is in existence today. Now the Center "Borderland of Arts, Cultures, Nations" is its host. The building contains the White Synagogue Gallery and the Borderland Tiny Bookstore. More...


In October 1990 Sejny Town Council conceded us some of the rooms in old yeshiva - Talmudic school. It became the first seat of the Borderland. The funds for necessary repairs were provided by Andrzej Wajda Foundation, a senator from Suwałki region at the time. In a short time a chamber room for exhibitions, dramas and concerts came into being. Also, it was here that the Documentation Center of Borderland Cultures started.
