Calling all Chopin girlies… in Warsaw rn, any places you all recommend that are Chopin related ? Already seeing his heart and birthplace :3
Maybe Krasiński palace because the national theater used to be in that courtyard and that's where he did his two "farewell" concerts and premiered his 2 concertos, and I believe they have some Chopin artifacts there u can see
The Visitationist Church in Krakowskie Przedmieście where Chopin used to play the organ in his teenage years (btw there's a funny anecdote about his time as an organist which you can read here: greatcomposers.nifc)
While you're in Krakowskie Przedmieście, you can see two places where Chopin lived with his family - one is at the University of Warsaw and it's called the Kazimierzowski (Casimir) Palace and the other, located opposite the university is the Czapski Palace, now home to the Academy of Fine Arts (there used to be ‘The Chopins’ living room open to the public but I believe all the memorabilia were moved to the Chopin Museum so it's no longer functioning)
Sadly the Chopin Museum is closed until the end of the year but if you want to visit the museum shop it's located in the Chopin Institute just opposite the museum - here's how to get there.
Last but not least, the Chopin Monument in the Łazienki Park of course!
Those are the main places (plus the Holy Cross Church of course) and here's an overview of the most important Chopin-related placed in Warsaw: Go to Warsaw
Enjoy Warsaw :)
