Pałac Ursynów, Classical palace in Ursynów district, Warsaw, Poland
Palac Ursynow is a two-story classical building with white walls and a symmetrical layout that reflects Renaissance Revival design elements. The main entrance is framed by columns that give the facade its distinctive character.
The building was erected in 1776 for the Potocki family as part of an estate in southern Warsaw. Extensive reconstruction work between 1858 and 1860 under architect Zygmunt Rospendowski gave it its current form.
The palace became a center where scholars and writers gathered during the 1800s, shaping its reputation as a place of learning and intellectual exchange. This legacy continues to influence how locals view the building and its grounds.
The palace is now part of Warsaw University of Life Sciences campus and access is generally restricted to scheduled visits. Visitors should contact the institution ahead of time to arrange entry.
An old walnut tree stands near the palace with an unusual history behind its planting. The tree was grown from seeds that reportedly came from George Washington.
