Czapski Palace, Baroque palace in Śródmieście district, Warsaw, Poland
The Czapski Palace stands at Krakowskie Przedmieście 5, featuring a central building with two side wings and ornate decorative elements representing the Four Seasons.
Architect Tylman van Gameren designed this palace in 1686, and subsequent renovations between 1752 and 1765 incorporated the Rococo architectural elements.
The Warsaw Academy of Fine Arts maintains its headquarters in the palace, housing a museum collection of 30,000 artworks spanning different artistic disciplines.
Visitors can explore the Chopin Family Parlor in the south annex, which contains period furniture and items connected to the composer's time there.
The palace served as residence to Stanisław Małachowski, who participated in drafting Poland's Constitution of May 3, 1791, the second written national constitution worldwide.
