The Grób Nieznanego Żołnierza, also known as the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, is a monument constructed to honor the unidentified soldiers who sacrificed their lives for Poland, and is considered the most significant national tomb of its kind in the country. Situated in Piłsudski Square, the monument is the only remaining structure of the Saxon Palace that occupied the site before World War II.

The Water Tower, also referred to as the Reservoir, was constructed during the time of Stanisław Herakliusz Lubomirski. Its purpose was to collect water from nearby sources and transport it to the Palace via pipes. This circular outbuilding, also known as the Rotunda, Round Tower, or Reservoir, was designed to collect water for the fountains located in the Palace on the Isle and the terrace in front of it. In 1823, architect Chrystian Piotr Aigner gave the Water Tower its current architectural form, which was inspired by the 1st century BCE Tomb of Caecilia Metella in Rome. During the reign of King Stanislaw August, the Water Tower served as housing for royal servants. Today, it houses an exhibition on the building's history and the importance of water in the functioning of Lazienki.

Stanisław Wyspiański was a multi-talented artist from Poland, known for his work as a playwright, painter, poet, interior designer, and furniture designer. He was born on January 15, 1869 and passed away on November 28, 1907.
As a patriotic writer, Wyspiański was a prominent figure in the Young Poland Movement. He is known for creating national dramas that incorporated modernist themes with elements of Polish folk tradition and Romantic history. He was one of the most influential and multi-talented artists of his time in Poland during the foreign partitions. He is often referred to as the Fourth Polish Bard, alongside Adam Mickiewicz, Juliusz Słowacki, and Zygmunt Krasiński.

The White Pavilion was constructed in 1774-1776, based on a design by Domenico Merlini. It was the first garden pavilion to be built for King Stanisław August on the grounds at Łazienki Palace.
The White Pavilion was designed to be surrounded by canals, similar to Stanisław Herakliusz Lubomirski's 17th-century Bathhouse Pavilion on an island.
Remarkably, it has been preserved almost in its entirety, including its interior decorations and some of the furnishings. As a result, the White Pavilion stands as a rare and exceptional example of 18th-century residential architecture in Poland.

The building, which was constructed between 1852 and 1854 in Saski Garden, was originally intended to serve both as a water tower and a water tank. Saski Garden, which was transformed from a baroque layout into a landscape park around the same time, has undergone many renovations over the years, but the open nature of the park has unfortunately led to the constant devastation of the building's facade. Despite this, the building's ancient temple-like appearance adds charm to the Saski Garden.
