Palace of Culture Turns 71 with a City-Wide Celebration in Warsaw

The Palace of Culture and Science in Warsaw is turning 71 and marking the occasion with a public celebration open to all city residents. The Soviet-era gift has long divided Varsovians – some cherish it, others resent it. Despite decades of rapid urban transformation, with glass skyscrapers and new metro lines reshaping the skyline, the PKiN remains an unmistakable landmark.
