In addition to the palaces along the Royal Route, Warsaw offers other grand buildings of the past.
One of the last Polish kings converted a bath house in Lazienki Park into a beautiful architectural watermark with the aid of D. Merlini.

While in Lazienki Park, wander over to the Theater on an Island designed by J.C. Kamsetzer and based on a Herculanum theater.

Merlini also had his hand in designing the Krolikarnia Palace, now the X. Dunikowski Museum which houses examples of this eminent sculptor's work.

|
Another museum devoted to another talented Polish artist (in this case, Chopin) is also housed in a 17th century palace on Tamka St.

But not all Polish palaces are for the tourist: the 18th century Braniski Palace on Miodowa St. serves as the seat of the municipal government departments.
