Saxon Palace
Warsaw, Poland
No longer standing
Demolished or destroyed.
The Saxon Palace stood on Piłsudski Square in Warsaw, Poland. Originally a 17th-century noble residence, it was expanded into a royal palace under the Saxon House of Wettin in the 18th century. Its final design, from 1838 by Adam Idźkowski, was neoclassical and noted for its colonnade. Destroyed by the Germans during the Second World War, only part of that colonnade survives, and since 1925 it has housed the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.
