On 6 March 2023, the Museum Council at the State Museum at Majdanek met. The Council members unanimously approved the report on the Museum's activities in 2022 and adopted the work plan for the current year.

Tomasz Kranz, the Director of the State Museum at Majdanek, introducing the Council to the activities accomplished by the Museum in 2022, emphasised that it was a special period in the Museum's activity. It involved a number of undertakings in connection with the 80th anniversary of operation "Reinhardt". Among them, he mentioned the publication of a special issue of the “Varia” magazine, a historical debate in the building of the former operation “Reinhardt” headquarters, an academic conference devoted to the operation’s infrastructure, thematic walks or the production of a documentary film about places in Lublin connected with the Holocaust history. - It is important to make people aware, through a popular message, of how material traces connected with this genocide are present in the historical structure of today's city," said the director.

Announcing the Museum's activities in 2023, Tomasz Kranz stated: - A key event will be a ceremony commemorating the 80th anniversary of the prisoners' uprising in SS-Sonderkommando Sobibor. He also drew attention to the planned publications, among which the premiere of Bolesław Jasieńczyk-Burski's memoirs and a new edition of a diary written in the Warsaw Ghetto will be particularly important. Turning to investment plans, he discussed the expansion of the Visitor Service Centre and the renovation of the Mausoleum on the grounds of the Museum at Majdanek, as well as the completion of construction work at the Museum and Memorial in Sobibór.
