Wawel Castle becomes a member of the Network of European Royal Residences

It was on this occasion that the idea of a common social media event is born!

We are pleased to announce that the Wawel Royal Castle has joined the European Royal Residences Association (ARRE).
ARRE is an association that has been operating on the initiative of the Palace of Versailles since 1996, and since 2001 it has been uniting institutions responsible for Europe’s most prestigious palace museums, enabling members to work together and share knowledge and experience in the preservation and development of cultural heritage.
The ARRE features as many as 35 residences from 14 countries including, for instance, Schönbrunn Palace, Fontainebleau Palace or the Royal Palace in Turin. Poland is the only country in the association that has as many as four residencies. Aside from our Castle, they include the King John III Palace Museum in Wilanów, the Royal Castle in Warsaw and the Royal Łazienki Park.
The association enables our staff to participate in and organise such events as conferences, grants or exchanges between museums and various meetings.
