Hotels near Wilanow Palace
02-958 Warszawa, Poland
Wilanow Palace was built between 1677 and 1696 as the summer residence of King Jan III Sobieski, the military commander who broke the Ottoman siege of Vienna in 1683. The baroque palace survived both world wars intact - one of very few royal residences in Warsaw that did - and its interiors preserve original frescoes, period furniture, and a portrait gallery spanning four centuries. The surrounding formal gardens, modelled on Versailles, cascade through Italian, English, and Chinese-styled sections.
Entry to the palace is 30 PLN (7 EUR), gardens 5 PLN. The palace is 10 km south of the city centre, so plan a half-day trip. Bus 116 or 180 runs directly from Lazienki Park. Between September and March, the Royal Garden of Light festival transforms the grounds with large-scale illuminated installations - tickets sell out, so book online at least a week ahead.
Pro Tip: Combine Wilanow with a visit to the Poster Museum (Muzeum Plakatu) in the palace grounds - it holds the world's first and largest collection of poster art, with over 55,000 pieces. Entry is just 12 PLN.
