Royal Łazienki Park

This park is often called Warsaw’s happiest place! Royal Łazienki is a palace and park complex in the south of the city and the summer residence of King Stanisław August Poniatowski. Picturesque pavilions, palaces, bridges and sculptures fill the grounds, where colourful peacocks wander, squirrels hide and mandarin ducks and large carp inhabit the ponds. It is a place where politics, art and everyday city life meet.

We will explore all the park’s gardens: modernist, romantic, Chinese and royal. A highlight will be a walk beside the Palace on the Isle, one of Europe’s most beautiful eighteenth-century country residences. We will learn how influential people of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth spent their leisure time, how the Romanov family influenced the park’s history, and about its creator, Poland’s last king, who was forced to abdicate.

Royal Łazienki is an ideal route for lovers of life’s pleasures who want to enjoy nature, history and art in one of Warsaw’s most beautiful settings.

Duration: about 1.5–2 hours. The price depends on the number of participants. Corporate groups are also welcome.
