The Memory of the Warsaw Uprising: Sixty-Three Days

0:00 / 0:20
  • Old Town: The City Rebuilt From Rubble: Warsaw's Old Town looks medieval, yet a living generation watched it fall to rubble and then rise again by hand. This self-paced walk reads the paradox of a UNESCO-listed quarter that a nation chose to rebuild rather than forget.
  • Royal Route: From the Castle to the King's Garden: Walk the kings' own road south down Warsaw's ceremonial spine, from the grand boulevard below the castle to the last king's water garden at Lazienki, and read the whole capital in a single line rebuilt from ruins.
