Palace of the Ministry of Revenues and Treasury
Palace of the Ministry of Revenues and Treasury, Classicist palace in Śródmieście district, Warsaw, Poland
The Palace of the Ministry of Revenues and Treasury is a three-story classical building with a central courtyard and six Corinthian columns defining its main front. The side wings feature stepped gables, and the entire structure occupies a prominent location at Bank Square 3/5.
Architect Antonio Corazzi designed this governmental building in 1825 for the Ministry of Revenues and Treasury under Franciszek Ksawery Drucki-Lubecki during the Congress Poland period. The structure was built to serve the kingdom's financial administration and later adapted for different public purposes.
The sculptural decorations on the facade depict wisdom, craftsmanship, commerce, and local rivers, works created by artist Paweł Maliński for this administrative building. These stone figures tell stories about the values the kingdom of Congress Poland wanted to represent at that time.
The building now serves as Warsaw's city hall, housing the President of Warsaw and the provincial office of Mazovia in a central downtown location. Visitors can view the classical architecture from outside and enjoy the lively surroundings of Bank Square.
Polish poet Juliusz Słowacki worked here from 1829 to 1831, leaving behind a personal connection to this official building that many visitors overlook. A monument to his memory now stands in front of one of the side wings, marking this cultural link.
