  Łukasz is an excellent guide! He is easygoing, flexible and above all: he knows his stuff. Łukasz points out different objects, he tells short stories rather than summarising dull... read more facts and he shows hidden gems that you would otherwise pass by. Also, Praga is a district worth visiting, very nice vibe. Definitely recommend!

  Can’t say enough about our guide Lukasz. He was punctual, personable, open minded, humorous and loaded with information. We gained immense insight into the history of Warsaw particularly... read more the destruction World War II brought (in both human and material terms) and the rebuilding that followed. It was also great to experience the beauty of the city with our walk through the King’s Gardens. We were 4 adult siblings traveling together and came home with a greater appreciation for the country of our ancestors. Thank you Lukasz.

  Lukas is a great person - a diamond among Warsaw guides. We expected a lot while arranging the warsaw praga tour and looking at the reviews. But what Łukasz showed... read more us exceeded our wildest expectations. He showed us Praga as few have seen, like we steped back in time. Hiddenn places, local backyards - all this we would have missed if we were on our own. He is an expert in his profession. Unforgettable warsaw tour with private guide. We highly recommend Lukas!

Frank Loyd Wright inspired house from 1935-1936, d Frank Loyd Wright inspired house from 1935-1936, designed by Bohdan Pniewski. It's located just right next to the Ministry of Defence, Belvedere Palace and Lazienki Royal Park. It's a duplex with a garden and rooftop terraces built for families of a lawyer and engineer from Warsaw. Interiors are decorated with Polish marbles and alabaster, and they have been preserved in the eastern unit. Lech Wałęsa used to live here for a while before he moved to the Belvedere Palace as the first President of Poland after the Fall of Communism. The designer Bohdan Pniewski was mostly known for his projects of state buildings such as the Polish Parliament, National Bank of Poland, and his biggest achievement which was the rebuilding and redesigning the Grand Theater and National Opera after the Second World War. . . . . . #pniewski #modernizm #architecturegram #architecturedaily #modernistdesign #instaarchitecture #igerswarsaw #polandphotos #insta_warsaw #nowawarszawa #discoverwarsaw #warsaw #poland

Such a waste of potential. Once it was a fancy apa Such a waste of potential. Once it was a fancy apartment house designed by a prominent architect Józef Napoleon Czerwiński. He died of heart attack watching his life's work turning to ashes during World War II. I know it from his great-grandson who wrote me an email a couple of years ago. It's one of the few surviving buildings on the former site of the Warsaw Ghetto, flattened by the Germans after the Ghetto Uprising in 1943. After the war the building was nationalized in accordance with policy of the Polish communist government. Since then it's been housing social apartments. Nobody has been taking care of it, but it's still occupied. This is what the residents see while entering their building. Even though it's neglected, these blue tiles are amazing💙💙💙 . . . . . #warsawpoland #walkingtour #warsawghetto #jewishhistory #citytour #localsonly #architecturegram #historicarchitecture #oldhouselove #deserve2preserve #archi_ologie #houses_phototrip #ig_europe #igerswarsaw #instawarszawa #warszawa_miasto
Incredibly green courtyard of the Szare Domy (The Incredibly green courtyard of the Szare Domy (The Grey Houses), a housing estate built in 1928-1932 according to the design of Jan Stefanowicz. The colony is a classic implementation of modernist functional architecture in Poland, inspired by De Stijl, a Dutch avant-garde movement. On black and white pictures from the 1930s and 1940s the buildings are already covered with plants, it's an old tradition of the colony. In 1992 it was inscribed in the Historic Monuments register of Warsaw.
