Lelewel Palace, Baroque palace in Warsaw, Poland

The palace features a neoclassical architecture with detailed facades and symmetrical layout, reflecting the architectural standards of 18th-century Polish nobility.

Built in 1740 by architect Szymon Bogumił Zug, the palace replaced a timber manor house that belonged to Krzysztof Gembicki before its destruction.

The palace represents the social position of the Lelewel family during Poland's period of partitions and stands as a symbol of aristocratic heritage.

Located on Miodowa Street in Warsaw's Old Town, the palace maintains its original structural elements despite numerous modifications through the centuries.

The palace's architectural plans included staircase wall paintings that resembled those found in the Palace of Versailles, indicating French artistic influence.
