Project title

Park pałacowy w Choroszczy

Description of initiative

The Podlaskie Museum in Białystok is the owner of the palace and park complex in Choroszcz, which includes a palace with the Museum of Palace Interiors and a park from the 18th century. The museum and park are an ideal place combining culture, art, health, a healthy lifestyle and well-being. The park requires a lot of investment to fully benefit from its advantages. The Podlasie Museum in Białystok systematically takes steps to make it as fully accessible as possible to residents, tourists and guests. The park is used for therapy by patients of the nearby psychiatric hospital.
