Welcome...

to Warsaw, the capital of Poland, city with distinctive atmosphere and definitely worth visiting.



Come and visit the Old Town, the historcal center of the capital. In summertime it becomes the stage for open air concerts, theater group shows and a painter's gallery.

If you are the a sacral art lover, I encougare you to go into Basilica of St. John the Baptist, the St. Martin's Church or the Church of Our Lady of Grace.



Castle Square:

The Royal Castle was built in 13th century. After the capital was moved from Cracow to Warsaw it became the center of the executive and legislative authorities. Barbarically robbed and destroyed between 1939-1944, it was rebuilt around the surviving architectural elements in 1971-1984.

The Column of King Zygmunt III Vasa is the oldest secular monument in Warsaw. It was designed by C. Molli. Destroyed in 1944 and rebuilt in 1949.
