Classicist manor house in Szafarnia, seat of the Chopin Centre. Teenage Fryderyk Chopin stayed there twice in the years 1824-1825 while on vacation at the invitation of his school friend Dominik ("Domusio") with the Dziewanowski family. It was here that the future great composer listened to folk melodies and wrote down their texts. According to musicologists, after his stays in Szafarnia, young Chopin changed his perception of rhythm in music. He began composing mazurkas inspired by native dances.
