바르샤바 역사 지구
1944년 8월에 일어난 바르샤바 봉기(Warsaw Uprising) 때 나치스 군에 의해 바르샤바 역사 지구의 85% 이상이 파괴되었다. 전후에 바르샤바 시민들은 5년 동안 재건에 나서 옛 도시의 교회, 궁전, 시장 등을 세심하게 복구했다. 이 유산은 13세기부터 20세기까지의 역사를 아우르는 총체적이고 뛰어난 재건의 사례이다.

Warsaw Barbican
The barbican was erected in 1540 in place of an older gate to protect Nowomiejska Street. It was designed by Jan Baptist the Venetian, an Italian Renaissance architect who lived and worked in the Mazowsze region of 16th century Poland and was instrumental in the redesign of the 14th-century city walls, which by that time had fallen into disrepair. The barbican had the form of a three-level semicircular bastion manned by fusiliers. It was 14 meters wide and 15 meters high from the bottom of the moat, which surrounded the city walls, and extended 30 meters from the external walls.
