Warsaw Attractions
During WWII Royal Castle was deliberately destroyed on Hitler's orders. It was rebuilt between 1971 and 1984, incorporating surviving artworks and thousands of original architectural fragments. Most impressive is the Great Apartment, dominated by the Great Assembly Hall which has been restored to its 1781 splendour of dazzling gilded stucco and golden columns.
