Guided tour ”Wilanow palace” in Warsaw

During our tour we will see one of the most beautiful Baroque Palaces in Poland, very often called as Polish Versaille and the gem of Baroque architecture.  The Wilanow palace and its garden remained relatively original despite some annexations, wars and occupations. We will see the home of King Jan III Sobieski, one of the most famous Polish kings and military commanders in history, famous for his victory over Turkish army in 1683.
