Who really was Frederic Chopin? An ingenious pianist and artist? One of the most talented Polish composers of romanticism era? Or a humble piano student, who dreamed of fame and recognition? With our knowledgeable guide you’ll learn much more about him!
Join us on a fascinating journey to the roots of one of the greatest composers in the world. We will take you to Żelazowa Wola – a birthplace of Fryderyk Chopin, just 1 hour drive from Warsaw. The main attraction is renovated manor house from XVIII century, where Chopin was born in 1810. Today, it houses a biographical museum of a Musician. Building is surrounded by a modernist park filled with rare species of plants, many ponds and two glass pavilions (one of them is a concert hall), upon the river Utrata.
Brochów is a village near Żelazowa Wola and another stop on our tour. Its Church of St John the Baptist is Chopin’s baptism place. Situated on the banks of the Bzura river is an exceptional sacral architecture treasure.

5.00An essential visit for all Chopin lovers, and the guide, Marcin, was also very helpful in explaining many things about the area, and Poland in general. The shop contains rare books on Chopin, and some rare scores, unfortunately most books were in Polish, but I found a couple in English. The countryside was beautiful, covered in snow. The garden lovely and suggestive with its frozen river.

5.00We did not receive the vodka toast but did not ask about it either. Our guide, Martin, was really personable and answered our many questions. The museum itself is not huge but we were able to enjoy a concert and view the countryside.
Perfect Day

5.00It was perfect. Marcin was quite possibly the best guide I've ever had. He is a wealth of knowledge not just about Chopin but about so much European history. His personality was ideal as well. We got along so well and it was a great day.
A very interesting and enjoyable tour.

4.00Spent 1/2 day with Karol touring Chopin’s birthplace and baptismal church. Would have loved to spend some time in the church but it was locked up. If you are a classical music lover highly recommend this tour.
Great tour to Chopins birthplace.

5.00We were picked up at our hotel by Marcin and went on the most incredible tour to Frédéric Chopin birthplace in Zelazowa-Wola. On our way he stopped at the bakery and bought us delicious polish donuts. Marcin was informative, funny and very knowledgeable about Chopin and history. At the house we were treated to a 20 minute outdoor performance by a young pianist. After viewing the house and garden, we drove to the church where Chopin was baptized. I strongly recommend this tour, it was amazing 🇵🇱👍.

5.00This was an excellent experience. Marcin was a fantastic guide! He was really very knowledgeable in the history of Poland, which provided a great deal of context regarding Chopin’s life. This tour wasn’t just a glimpse into the great Polish composer’s life, but also a glimpse into Poland as a country. I truly enjoyed this tour and would highly recommend it. Thank you Marcin Hilgier and Viator!
