Baroque Warsaw comprised the largest Polish town of gardens. Numerous garden premises organically connected with royal residences, magnate palaces and manors of the nobility as well as monastic and church complexes emerged in the town itself, surrounded by ramparts, in its suburbs and in the nearest vicinity. The main sequence assumed form along the line of the Vistula, achieving the most picturesque form on the escarpment and in the river valley. A considerable part of the gardens was also created along the main tracts leading to the west, south and north. The French entre cour et jardin premise was greatly popular in the first half of the seventeenth century up to the last quarter of the eighteenth century. Owing to the dramatic history of Warsaw, wartime cataclysms and spatial transformations of the city, the former Baroque gardens disappeared from its landscape or were subjected to far-going transformations. The only premise which regained its Baroque form is the royal residence in Wilanow. Work has been initiated on the restoration of Baroque qualities to the garden of the Royal Castle and the Saxon Garden, once the largest royal Baroque premise in Warsaw.
