Fryderyk Chopin the greatest Polish composer, piano virtuoso (1810-1849).

The most interesting sites in Warsaw (where Chopin lived in the years 1810-1830):
- Chopin Museum ? in the picturesque Ostrogski Palace,
- Holy Cross Church, with the urn containing Chopin?s heart,
- Famous monument of the composer in the Royal Łazienki Park,
- The Manor in Żelazowa Wola ? the composer?s birth place ? about 50 km from Warsaw. A former
gentry manor, surrounded with a beautiful park, housing a small museum ? Chopin spent only the first
seven months of his life there, but it is worth seeing.
-Brochów ? a 16th-century church where Chopin?s parents were married (1806) and little Fryderyk
was christened.
