Zacheta gallery was built in 1900 as the headquarters for the Warsaw Fine Arts Society, who were active in promoting and popularizing Polish talent. The building was designed by Stefan Szyller and its architecture is predominantly Renaissance with classical elements. Originally, only part of the design was actually finished, but in 1998 a new wing was added. During the Second World War, the gallery's collection was sent to the National Gallery for safe keeping, but it was never returned and the Zachêta now hosts high quality temporary contemporary art exhibitions.
