A European Pioneer
The Royal Garden of Light was one of the first projects on the continent to blend light art with historical heritage.
For over a decade, the palace gardens of Wilanów have demonstrated how modern technology can enhance the preservation and accessibility of culture – complementing the monument rather than competing with it.
With its impressive scale, artistic coherence and conservation sensitivity, the Wilanów installation — created by Multidekor — has become a benchmark for royal residences and palace gardens across Europe.
Today, similar light installations can be admired at Schönbrunn Palace in Vienna, Kew Gardens in London, the Palace of Versailles, Charlottenburg Gardens in Berlin, and castles such as Książ, Arcen and Trakošćan.
Learning Through Light
The Royal Garden of Light is more than an art exhibition – it is a multisensory narrative about history, art, and nature.
Every year, it attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors – families, students and international tourists alike.
Through 3D mapping, interactive installations and storytelling in light, visitors are invited to read the architecture and history of the palace in a completely new way.
Here, light acts as a guide and interpreter of the past, sparking curiosity and emotional connection.
Light That Protects, Not DestroysŚwiatło, które chroni – nie szkodzi
The Wilanów Palace Museum ensures that every installation is designed with full respect for historical and natural heritage. Low-heat LED lighting and carefully controlled mounting guarantee the safety of both the architecture and the surrounding greenery.
Contrary to common concerns, events like this do not harm monuments — they help to protect them by raising public awareness, attracting new audiences and generating funds for restoration.
Inspiring Europe
The Royal Garden of Light is a vivid example of how tradition and innovation can meet in the service of culture.
Winter light installations by Multidekor in heritage gardens have become a European trend – not a passing fashion, but a new form of storytelling about history.
By illuminating the Wilanów gardens, Poland has placed itself on the map of Europe’s most innovative cultural experiences – ones that not only amaze, but also educate and bring people together through shared heritage.
