"Frédéric Chopin was born in 1810 in a small 19th-century manor house in the town of Żelazowa Wola. While his family moved to Warsaw soon after his birth, he often returned to Żelazowa Wola for holidays, and his home—not to mention the sights and sounds of the surrounding Mazovian countryside—are said to have influenced his early music. Today, his house functions as a museum, and is surrounded by a serene, beautifully landscaped park. As you wander the home, imagine the concerts Chopin used to give as a young man on a grand piano that he placed under the linden trees in the garden. Reportedly, farmers from the area would join his family and friends to listen to him play. If you can, time your visit to coincide with one of the Chopin concerts, which are held every summer weekend on the terrace at noon and 3 p.m."

I visited in January. Admission is free on Mondays. I was able to see the house where Chopin actually lived. There were portraits of Chopin and a piano on display, and I was also able to visit the extensive garden. It was very inaccessible and took about 40 minutes by taxi from Warsaw.

The park and gardens are both five-star attractions. The organizing skills of the museum operators do not deserve more than two stars. I can't comment on the interior of the house because of the above-mentioned organization of the museum. After the 12:00 recital on Sunday 13-07-25 when the house was supposed to open to visitors, a man was posted at the door without any prior announcement to stop anybody entering. Very disappointing. In deference to my Polish host, I did not demand a refund.

Lovely place, very charming. With a beautiful garden to walk around or sit on a bench underneath a tree. Very recommend their live music concerts during its season (May-September).

The birthplace of Fryderyk Chopin. Summer is recommended, which is also the concert season, visitors get to listen to free outdoor concert. Very beautiful place, and very tranquil compared to any other parks in Warsaw. The place is tricky to access by bus, please refer to the official website (not 100% accurate though) instead of listening to Google, which might get you stranded at the train station.

Amazing place that is full of history. Really well kept. Plenty of gardens around. The cinema shows a moxie about the life of Chopin. The birth house holds a history of Chopin family and holds some old furniture.

Beautiful place for an afternoon walk. Peaceful and relaxing. Great place to learn about Chopin's childhood and life. Even the kids enjoyed it :)

Nice tranquil park. His actual house was closed (winter) but open in summer. Nice facilities and a gift shop. Chopin's music can be heard throughout the park.
