For visitors
We invite you to visit Villa Decius!
Erected in 1535 in Wola Justowska at the outskirts of Krakow, Villa Decius is one of the finest and most complete examples of a suburban Renaissance residence. Between the 16th and 19th century, it was a place of residence of many distinguished families, starting with the Decius family, who were the Villa's first owners, and then, among others: the Lubomirski and Sanguszko families, the counts Kuczkowski, and the princes Czartoryski. The exhibition of paintings from the Regional Museum in Nowy Sącz and furniture from the National Museum in Krakow are a mere substitute to the rich furnishing that was undoubtedly ordered to the Villa by its past owners.

Villa Decius is the most beautiful Renaissance palace, surrounded by a park, in Poland. The historical compound comprises also two outbuildings. In spring 1998, following a major restoration, a Villa outbuilding, named Łaski House after a friend of Justus Decius, was opened. The second outbuilding, with an eye-catching architectural form, is called Erasmus House. It was erected in 2000 with the financial support of the Foundation for Polish-German Co-operation and the City of Krakow. The Decius Park houses a gallery of sculptures by Bronisław Chromy, who has made numerous sculptures and monuments, including e.g. the Wawel Dragon or the Monument to the Polish Airmen fallen on all the fronts of World War II in Krakow.
