Branicki Palace, Poland

From series “Rococo Architecture – Famous Monuments”
Year: 1753.

Branicki Palace is the most important architectural monument in Poland. It is located in Warsaw. Local wealthy magnate Stefan Mikolaj Branicki purchased a plot of land in the early 18th century. This is where the palace was located. Construction of the new family residence began in 1740. It was completed in 1753. Initially, the building was distinguished by a luxurious facade design. The adjacent territory of the palace and its premises were decorated with unique sculptures. Unusual dormer windows were one of the main features of the palace.

Branicki Palace, Poland The palace has changed several owners over the years. Famous politicians and cultural figures of the Polish capital were among them. Each of the new owners sought to bring something new to the appearance of the palace. It was partially destroyed during the Second World War. It was fully restored only by 1953. It belonged to the Ministry of Science and Higher Education after restoration. The palace was taken over by the municipality of Warsaw in 2009.

One of the most luxurious palaces in Poland belonged to František Potocki before the war. Its property was nationalized during the war years. The heirs of the last owner of the palace claimed the family estate in 2008. They managed to win the trial. The Branicki Palace is privately owned today. Its owners provide the premises of the historic building for rent. The historic building is a tourist attraction open to the public. Interesting landscape compositions always adorn the adjacent territory of the palace and its charming courtyard in the summer. Next - Cuvillies Theatre

Top destination around Branicki Palace - Warsaw

Those who want to look at the city from a completely different angle should think about visiting the Warsaw quarter known as Prague. Here you can see many houses belonging to pre-war architecture - the thing is that this is the only district that has not undergone significant changes during the tragic events of the Second World War. You can get here on foot from the Old Town via Most Śląsko-Dąbrowski. However, take into account that this is the bad part of town, so if the walk is planned for late hours, it is better to avoid going deep into the block.

Warsaw's nightlife never ceases to surprise those who decide to spend a fun night. Those who want to sing get this opportunity at N58 Club, those who like listening to live music can do this in Bar and Books Podwale. Dancing on the roof? No problem - just look for Level 27 Bar & Club. If you demand a more standard setting for dancing, it's better to visit Tygmont Live Club or Naprawa. Well, Miejsce Chwila is an ideal place for both connoisseurs of non-standard interiors and those preferring good jokes. That's where you will find excellent stand-up shows.
