The Columned Hall
The Columned Hall is one of the most beautiful classical interiors in Warsaw. It is rented for the needs of UW units and external institutions.
The beautiful interior impresses with its atmosphere and the malachite splendour of its columns. Frederic Chopin used to walk through it. The hall is authentic and was not destroyed during the war. Currently, it houses figures from the collection of the former Plaster Cabinet of the University of Warsaw.
