The Łazienki Palace — in English, the Baths Palace; also called the Palace on the Water, or Water Palace and the Palace on the Isle is a Neoclassical palace in Warsaw's Royal Baths Park.

The palace is built on an artificial island that divides the lake into two parts, a smaller northern lake and a larger southern one. The palace is connected to the surrounding park by two Ionic colonnaded bridges. The façades are unified by an entablature carried by giant Corinthian pilasters that link its two floors and are crowned by a balustrade that bears statues of mythologic figures. The north façade is relieved by a central pedimented portico. On the south front, a deep central recess lies behind a screen of Corinthian columns. [wikipedia]
