The Zachęta building is one of the finest historical buildings in Warsaw. As one of few in the city, it survived the Second World War intact and boasts original interiors. The fine eclectic building, design by Stefan Szyller and decorated with a sculpted fronton with the Latin inscription ARTIBUS (‘TO THE ARTS’), was erected in 1900; located in downtown Warsaw in the vicinity of the Saxon Garden, near Warsaw’s main tourist route — the Royal Route.
