Have a look at Warsaw through famous composer Fryderyk Chopin’s eyes. Here are a few places to visit:

Chopin Museum
Start your journey through time at the Chopin Museum. Housed in the Ostrogski Castle, the museum features personal letters, manuscripts, and cameos.

Holy Cross Church
In 1882, part of Chopin’s remains were buried in the Holy Cross Church.

Lazienki Park
Although most of Warsaw was destroyed during World War II, Lazienki Park survived remarkably well. It’s here that you’ll find a monument for Chopin, not to mention stunning lakes, gardens, and palaces.

Warsaw, Poland has an impressive collection of palaces that range in age and architectural style. Here are three of our favourites:

Zamoyski Palace
This palace began its original construction in 1735, but was bought by Constanty Zamoyski in 1799. For the next nearly 30 years, Constanty refurbished and redisigned the estate into what it is today. You’ll enjoy its classic gardens, Baroque architecture, and period furnishings.

Staszic Palace
One of the palaces with the oldest history, Staszic has its roots in 1620. It was then that a small chapel was commissioned as a a burial ground. In 1818, Stanis?aw Staszic bought and reworked the chapel into this imposing palace.

Ostrogski Palace
Now housing the Chopin Society, The Ostrogski Palace has passed through the hands of the government various dignitaries, and aristocratic families.
