Archaeological work being carried out at the site and its remnants have revealed the presence of a mysterious 45-meter (147.6 ft) long tunnel under the ruins of the old palace, which is a whopping 4 meters (13.1 ft) deep! The tunnel has been described as “the most mysterious place on Piłsudski Square in Warsaw”.
