[3] The construction of the center was implemented as part of the "Preservation, protection, promotion and development of natural and cultural heritage of the Wielkopolska Regional Operational Program between 2014 and 2020,[4] in cooperation with the Adam Mickiewicz University.

[5] The current location of the center was originally occupied by the building of the military headquarters of the 5th Army Corps of the German Empire (Königliche Intendantur des V Armeekorps) built between 1843 and 1847.

[6] Part of the rooms were used by the Poznan branch of the Cipher Bureau of the general staff of the Polish army, where the three leading early cryptanalysts of the Enigma -- Marian Rejewski, Henryk Zygalski and Jerzy Różycki -- worked.

On December 16, 2021, the scattered “Sub Rosa” concert took place at the permanent exposition area, organized on the occasion of the 89th anniversary of breaking of the Enigma code by Polish cryptologists.

The aim of the project is to popularize knowledge about outstanding women, pioneers in the fields of mathematics, philosophy, computer science, cryptology and intelligence services during World War II.

As part of the project, a STEAM workroom was created in the building where the Enigma Cipher Center is located - the acronym comes from the names of five disciplines: science, technology, engineering, art and mathematics.

The workroom hosts a temporary exhibition "Cipher_girls", which introduces visitors to the history and achievements of twenty outstanding women associated with the exact sciences, the development of digital technologies and activities during World War II.
