Talk:Krasiński Palace

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] The other Krasiński Palace

I'd like to alert Wikipedists to the existence of a second "Krasiński Palace" in Warsaw—at Krakowskie Przedmieście 5, across the street from the Warsaw University main entrance. That is the Krasiński Palace where Chopin lived from 1827, I think, till he left Warsaw and Poland forever in November 1830.

If memory serves, the Krasiński Palace that is the subject of this article used to bear a plaque identifying it, erroneously, as Chopin's Krasiński Palace. Nihil novi (talk) 20:28, 29 March 2008 (UTC)

P.S. Analogously, there are also two Radziwiłł Palaces in Warsaw, one near the Royal Castle (where Patriotic Party leaders met before pushing through the Constitution of May 3, 1791) and the other, not far from ulica Marszałkowska — a distinctive, relatively modest-sized round building that is now sandwiched between streetcar tracks and which once housed a Lenin Museum (Muzeum Lenina).
