Morysin, Historical palace and nature reserve in Wilanów, Poland

Located between Lake Wilanów, the Wilanówka River, and the Sobieski Channel, Morysin combines architectural heritage with natural forest landscapes over 53 hectares.

The area changed from a 17th-century zoo into a romantic park in the early 19th century under Stanisław Kostka Potocki, who named it after his grandson Maurycy.

The park features remaining structures including a rotunda palace inspired by the Temple of Hercules in Rome, a guardian house, and a neo-gothic gate from 1846.

Visitors can access both the historical structures and nature reserve areas, which contain numerous protected tree species and 34 different bird species.

The forest contains large amounts of decomposing wood that creates habitats for mushrooms and insects, supporting the local ecosystem under massive ash and poplar trees.
