Cantonist Barracks in Łazienki, Military residential complex in Łazienki Park, Poland

The Cantonist Barracks, built from brick, features rectangular shapes and symmetrical design elements characteristic of early 19th-century military architecture.

Established in 1828, these barracks were used to house young Jewish recruits who were forcibly conscripted into military service under the Russian Empire.

The barracks now function as part of the Museum of Hunting and Horsemanship, displaying collections related to Polish equestrian traditions.

Visitors can explore the barracks and museum exhibits through guided tours available during regular opening hours throughout the week.

The building retains original structural elements from the Cantonist period, including specialized training areas and living quarters for military recruits.
