The Royal Łazienki Museum invites adults and seniors to explore the intricacies of its historic gardens through a series of specialized meetings titled "Secrets of the Łazienki Gardener's Work." These engaging sessions, scheduled for June 27, July 25, and August 22, 2025, offer a unique opportunity to learn directly from the professionals who maintain the museum's beautiful grounds. The meetings will delve into various aspects of horticultural and animal care within the park's historical context. Each session focuses on a distinct theme: on June 27, the topic will be "Compositions and Selection of Flowers for Historic Interiors," exploring how seasonal flowers from the gardens are used to create decorative arrangements for the museum's interiors, showcasing different techniques. On July 25, "Caring for Peacocks" will provide insights into the daily lives of the park's iconic birds, covering their diet, housing, and the possibility of seeing young peacocks. Finally, on August 22, the meeting "Łazienki Citrus Trees" will address the challenges of cultivating exotic citrus trees in the local climate, their wintering practices, and the edibility of their fruit. These talks are presented by experts Urszula Piekutowska, Beata Kańska, and Kamila Majszyk, and are integrated into the program for the temporary exhibition "Life of a Royal Garden."

Admission to these meetings is free. They are open to adults and seniors and take place in the morning at 10:00 AM.
