    Somehow I had the impression that I knew the building from films. If it is right in front of it, it looks impressive.

          The Palace of Culture and Science (PKiN) in Warsaw, built between 1952 and 1955, is one of the tallest buildings in Poland (237 m with a spire). Its design comes from the Soviet architect Lev Rudnev, and its architectural style combines socialist realism with historicism. The palace was a gift from the USSR to Poland and was built during the Stalinist era. When completed in 1955, it was one of the tallest buildings in Europe and the world.

          The building serves cultural and scientific purposes, housing theatres, museums, universities and institutions. It also has a congress hall, the “Kinoteka” cinema and an observation deck. The palace was also a symbol of Soviet domination, which is controversial. Its entry into the register of historical monuments in 2007 was met with resistance from some in society, who consider it a symbol of Poland’s enslavement. On the other hand, supporters emphasize the architectural and historical value of the building. The palace is currently one of the most recognizable elements of the Warsaw landscape.
