In July 1993 - on the 50th anniversary of the pacification - the "Pieta of Michniów" statue by Wacław Stawecki was unveiled in Michniów. In July 1997 a new House of National Remembrance was opened. It houses a permanent exhibition and research center documenting the martyrdom of Polish villages during World War II. In the square behind the grave of the victims of the massacre in Michniów, the Sanctuary of the Martyr's Polish Villages was opened. Crosses symbolizing Polish villages massacred by the Germans in 1939–1945 are placed in the sanctuary (there are now several hundred of them). In 2004, at the initiative of former soldiers of the 27th Home Army Infantry Division, a monument "Pożoga Wołynia" (English: "Volhynia Conflagration") was unveiled in the sanctuary. It commemorates Polish villages murdered in Volhynia by Ukrainian nationalists.
