A Royal Summer Retreat and Chopin Under the Willow

Lazienki Park in Warsaw takes its name from a bathhouse, as Łazienki means baths. Poland's last king, Stanisław August Poniatowski, turned it into his summer residence in the late 1700s, transforming the bathhouse into the elegant Palace on the Isle in the middle of a lake.

Nearby, the Amphitheatre has a stage on its own island, so audiences watch across the water. The Old Orangery holds a historic court theatre. Peacocks strut along the paths, and red squirrels dart between trees, making the park popular with families.

The Chopin Monument shows the composer seated beneath a willow. Nazi occupiers destroyed it in 1940, and it was recast after the war. Every summer Sunday, pianists play free Chopin concerts beside it, and crowds sit on the grass to listen.
