Four Domes Pavilion, Art museum in Wrocław, Poland.
The Four Domes Pavilion is a modernist building constructed from reinforced concrete and glass, distinguished by four white domes that crown its roof and set within gardens. The structure combines functional design with distinctive architectural features that are immediately visible from the outside.
The building was constructed in 1913 by architect Hans Poelzig as part of an international exhibition and served multiple purposes over the decades. It was repurposed as an art exhibition space after 2009 and has since displayed contemporary artworks.
The pavilion functions as a branch of the National Museum, displaying works by Polish artists of the 20th century that reflect the country's artistic development. Visitors explore contemporary perspectives on painting and sculpture within these exhibition spaces.
The pavilion is accessible throughout most of the week and opening times vary by season. It is helpful to check current hours before visiting, especially if you plan to arrive without advance planning.
Between 1945 and 2009 the building functioned as a film production studio creating various movies within its spaces. This long chapter as a working studio is barely visible today as the location now operates entirely as an art exhibition venue.
