Fryderyk: Welcome to Warsaw 

At the Warsaw Chopin Airport, visitors will be able to stop over at the Chopin Spot, a grand piano available to anyone willing to play. A unique selfie will make a wonderful Warsaw souvenir: after downloading the Selfie with Chopin application, users can use the interactive app to meet virtual Fryderyk at the airport and elsewhere across the city. A Japanese version of the app and the website http://www.chopin.warsawtour.pl is available.

Love, Grand Piano and Heart 

Many key Warsaw venues tie in with Chopin. All of them are at your fingertips thanks to the Chopin in Warsaw application (also available in Japanese). The app will guide visitors to the interactive Fryderyk Chopin Museum, celebrating the composer's biography worldwide. Manuscripts and the grand piano originally owned by the artist are among the valuable mementos on display. According to Chopin's wishes, his heart was returned to Poland upon his death and interred at the Holy Cross Church near where Chopin lived and studied. Rest a while in the Saxon Garden, where young Fryderyk had his first dates.
