Sulejówek

Half-day trip from Warsaw for the Józef Piłsudski Museum and a forest walk; not a base.

Sulejówek is a quiet town on Warsaw's eastern edge, known as the home of Józef Piłsudski. The main draw is the Piłsudski Museum with its restored manor house and gardens. Combined with a walk in the adjacent forest, it fills a morning or afternoon. Most travellers pass through on the way to or from Warsaw.
