U-Jazdowski / The Ujazdowski Castle Centre for Contemporary Art

Ujazdowski Castle Centre for Contemporary Art is a place where we want to reflect on the world by means of art. In a baroque castle located next to Łazienki Park we present exhibitions, performances, we run a cinema, a bookshop, a library and an art residency programme. We present artists’ ideas through workshops and guided tours. Ujazdowski Castle is a space for creative experiments in which different art disciplines blend and coexist creating new experiences. We welcome anyone interested in exploring art.

Education (Workshops)

U–jazdowski is about many parallel educational and promotional activities, all of which are aimed at providing ever broader access to the most current achievements of contemporary artists from Poland and abroad. The Department of Education and Promotion works in a mode of long-term processes and educations cycles: those addressed to specific recipients, as well as ones organised in thematic cycles.

General Accessibility in the Museum (Accessible entrance for pushchairs and wheelchairs)

There are two entrances to the building, on the west and north side of the Ujazdowski Castle. The west entrance is intended for guests. The north entrance is intended for employees and deliveries. <br>The west entrance, located at ground level, consists of glass doors that open outwards. The staff will assist you in opening the door. <br>The ticket office and information desk are located on the right side of the entrance, in the main hall. <br>The exhibition in the Project Room is located on the first floor in the southern part of Ujazdowski Castle. To access the exhibition, exit the main hall through the glass door into the courtyard, then turn right, use the ramp and open the wooden door. Because the door opens outwards, the staff will assist you in opening the door. The cinema will be on your left. The exhibition is located on the first floor. You can reach it by climbing the stairs with handrails or by an elevator.

Guide dogs (Animals)

The entire building can be accessed with an assistance dog and/or a guide dog.

Parking (Parking)

There are 2 parking spaces for those with disabilities before the main entrance to the Ujazdowski Castle Centre for Contemporary Art. Wide, single-leaf doors open from the outside (staff is obliged to aid). Persons with valid permits for free use of parking places intended for those with disabilities are exempt from paying for parking. It is possible to drop someone off directly in front of the entrance to the building – in this case, please contact the concierge via the intercom located next to the barrier.

Social Projects (Complementary Offer)

The Ujazdowski Castle Centre for Contemporary Art has been involved in numerous social development projects whose key points of reference are activities which empower practices elaborated by contemporary art. The social relations in these practices are seen as being subject to constant formation with the intention to integrate diversities but without unifying them. Contemporary art develops complex and nuanced means of communication, mediation, and fusion of different elements, though preserving, at the same time, their differences. Our aim for these social projects is to help collect knowledge about such practices, so that we can share them and develop our reflection on their application in order to put them into force and help build relations with partners so as to promote the best practices, but also so as to assess and modify them.

Toilets (Accessible restrooms)

The toilets for the disabled, are located at level +1 in the southern part of the Ujazdowski Castle. Use the elevator located in front of the cinema entrance, next to Instalacje Art Bistro.
