Justice and Heroism
Krasiński Square is a place of great contrasts. On one side stands the beautiful, baroque Krasiński Palace surrounded by a vast garden. On the other side, the modern, glass body of the Supreme Court and the monumental, highly emotional Warsaw Uprising Monument draw the eye.
Highlights of the Square
Warsaw Uprising Monument
One of the most important monuments in Poland, depicting soldiers emerging from the ruins and rushing into battle.
Supreme Court
A fascinating postmodern building with a unique structure, into which columns full of Latin legal maxims have been integrated.
Krasiński Palace
An outstanding work of baroque architecture in Warsaw (also called the Palace of the Commonwealth), which today houses special collections of the National Library.
