Wilanów Park surrounds the palace of King Jan III Sobieski on three sides, a 45-hectare composition reshaped by every family that owned the estate.

The baroque flower parterres closest to the palace mirror the rooms within it, each pair of beds corresponding to a royal chamber. Further out, the garden gives way to a landscape park, an English-Chinese garden added in 1784, and an oxbow lake fed by the Vistula where otters, beavers and spiny-cheek crayfish share the water with mallards and grey herons.

The original Dutch sculptures were carried off by Russian troops in the early 18th century. Silesian replacements from 1729 to 1734 now stand among rose beds alongside a secret Italian garden the Potocki family commissioned in 1855.

VoiceMap's Wilanów tour moves through these layers to show how each successive owner left their mark, turning a royal retreat into one of Poland's most complex designed landscapes.
