Conference cocktail

28 May 2008, Royal Castle, Warsaw 

The Polish Patent Office cordially invites all participants, exhibitors and partners to a cocktail party on Wednesday, 28 May 2008, at Warsaw’s Royal Castle situated in the Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, one of the most historic parts of Warsaw.

The Castle, a magnificent example of Baroque architecture and official residence of Polish monarchs, was built in the years 1589 – 1619 by Italian architects Giovanni Trevano, Giacomo Rodondo, Paolo del Corte and Mateo Castelli.

After Poland regained its independence in 1918, the Castle served as the residence of the President of the Republic.

In 1944 it was completely destroyed by the Nazis. The postwar Communist authorities were not keen to rebuild the Castle. It was not until 1971, following a long campaign by the country’s intellectual élite, that the decision was made to undertake this task.

The Castle was rebuilt solely from funds raised among Poles at home and abroad. Fragments of the original building materials, stucco-works, carvings, and wall paintings were used to rebuild the Castle and original artworks were reinstated.

In 1984 the reconstructed interiors were opened to the public. Since 1995 work has been undertaken to conserve the Kubicki Arcades and to reconstruct the gardens.

The completion of these works, including the renovation of the Tin-Roofed Palace, will bring to an end the work of rebuilding the architectural complex forming the Royal Castle in Warsaw.

Currently, the Royal Castle serves as a setting for cultural events and state ceremonies.

Conference gala dinner

The Polish Patent Office cordially invites all participants, exhibitors and partners to a Gala Dinner on Thursday, 29 May 2008, at Warsaw’s Palace of Science and Culture. Guests will be able to enjoy traditional Polish food while listening to Polish urban folk music.

The Palace is one of the most recognizable symbols of Warsaw, and the highest building in Poland, visible from every corner of the capital city – 230.68 m high. It was built between 1952 and 1955 by the architect Lew Rudniew.

With its theatres, museums and cinemas the Palace of Culture and Science is a cultural hub. It has been associated for many years with unique indoor decoration, beautiful marble floors, wooden board floors, decorated ceilings, crystal and ceramic chandeliers, mosaics and reliefs adding a hint of social realism to the decorations typical for the epoque.
