Pałac pod Karczochem, Gothic Revival palace in Warsaw, Poland

The palace at Aleje Ujazdowskie 14 features pointed arches, ribbed vaults, and stone buttresses, reflecting nineteenth-century architectural principles of Gothic Revival design.

Three notable architects contributed to the palace's development: Szymon Bogumił Zug initiated construction in 1786, followed by Antonio Corazzi and Leandro Marconi through 1846.

The building served various diplomatic functions, housing the North Korean embassy from 1947 to 1984 and later becoming the Lithuanian embassy in 2006.

This protected monument maintains regular visiting hours throughout the year, with different schedules during summer and winter seasons.

The palace earned its name 'Pod Karczochem' from decorative artichoke motifs incorporated into its architectural elements.
