In 2006, the exhibition has been enriched by a unique, thoroughly modern "Panorama of Silesian Uprisings" enlivened with fifteen-minute performance of "light and sound". The rotunda with the Panorama is accessible via a historical and nature path in the form of a diorama, presenting the most valuable monuments of architecture and the beauty of nature surrounding Mount St. Anne.

The rooms on the second floor host temporary exhibitions, there is also an audio-visual room which hosts museum lessons for children and youth, scientific sessions, lectures, readings, etc.

In 2006 the Uprising Museum also obtained the Department of Nature of Opole Silesia Museum. Since then, it hosts temporary exhibitions of nature, as well as popularization and education in the form of lectures, museum classes, competitions and field trips. Science collections include more than 11 thousand inventory items and are mainly herbarium sheets from Opolszczyzna.
