The Potocki Palace (Polish: Pałac Potockich, Polish pronunciation: [pɔˈtɔt͡skʲi]) is a large baroque palace in Warsaw, located at Krakowskie Przedmieście 15, directly opposite the Presidential Palace. It was originally built for the Denhoff family and in the late 18th century became the property of the Potocki family.
After World War II the building served as the seat of the Ministry of Culture and Art (Ministerstwo Kultury i Sztuki). It now houses the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage (Ministerstwo Kultury i Dziedzictwa Narodowego).
