The Royal Residence of Wilanow - this Baroque residence was a gift of King Jan III Sobieski to his beloved wife, Marie Casimire Louise. As such, it is a monument of love and partnership. The architecture of the palace in Wilanow is a fusion of the achievements of European art with the preferences of Polish nobility. The rich collection of art has been arranged to represent different timelines. It includes antique vases, paintings by Cranach, Rubens and David, fine porcelain from China, as well as many objects of everyday use. The former riding hall in the palace is now home to the Poster Museum. The interiors and the outdoor area often host exhibitions, meetings, and concerts, as well as musical workshops during the International Summer Academy of Early Music. The garden has arrangements with very neatly trimmed trees. In the spring, the gardens explode with blossoming magnolias, which are the oldest specimens of this species in Poland.

The Wilanow virtual collection holds numerous artifacts of significant cultural and historical interest. For example, you can read about the extraordinary life of King Jan III Sobieski, who, after leading the victorious armies at the Battle of Vienna, was hailed as the “savior of Christendom” and “The Lion of Lehistan.” Other exciting reads revolve around subjects of art and architecture, local life, customs, and food. 

The former Royal Route stretches from Zamkowy Square to Trzech Krzyży Square. Must-see sights on the Route include: St. Anne's Church (and the view from the church tower), the Polonia House (once the Museum of Industry and Trade, where Maria Skłodowska-Curie worked), the Radziwiłł Palace (the current residence of the President of Poland), the Warsaw University campus with Kazimierzowski Palace, Czapski Palace (Academy of Fine Arts) and elegant stores and restaurants on Nowy Świat Street — an extension of Krakowskie Przedmieście Street.
