Dąmbski Palace in Toruń, Baroque palace in Toruń, Poland.
The Dąmbski Palace is a Baroque building in Toruń featuring elaborate stucco decorations with floral patterns across its facade. The architecture comes from the late 17th century and displays traditional elements typical of that period.
The building was erected in 1693 by Bishop Stanisław Dąmbski and remained in the family's possession until the end of the 18th century. It reflected the power and wealth of its owner during that period in the city.
The palace now houses the Kujawsko-Pomorskie Impresario Musical Theater and the Proscenium art gallery, where visitors can attend performances and exhibitions year-round. It has become an active cultural venue for the city's artistic life.
The palace is located on Żeglarska Street 8 near the Sailing Gate in the city center. Visitors should take time to examine the facade details and check if cultural events are happening on their visit day.
The building introduced Italian stucco decoration techniques to Toruń and was the first structure in the city to feature this specific architectural style. This decoration technique later influenced other buildings in the region.
