About Old Town Observation Terrace

A great way to look across the Old Town in one spectacular masterpiece, as you get stunning views from this tower. Right in the middle of the Old Town, you can see the Vistula river as well as VIP views of the royal palace. Do you love heights and tightly crammed spaces with winding stairs? Then look no further, this is the spot to be in! You get perfect views of the river, the new football stadium, the central square, and the surroundings. You can enjoy great views of the Palace of Culture and Science too. Accessed by a staircase just off the old square, this is a steep climb up a bell tower of the St. Anne's Church that rewards your efforts with fantastic views over the old town. But remember you need to go up 150 stairs. A lot to do nearby - restaurants, cafes, shopping, and Warsaw Castle so make sure to visit this Viewing Platform when you visit Warsaw.
