The Aqueduct in Arkadia is an ornamental, two-storey brick structure erected over a water cascade, modelled on ancient Roman aqueducts, forming one of the elements of Helena Radziwiłłowa's sentimental-romantic garden.
The aqueduct is located in the romantic park in Arkadia, in the Nieborów commune (Łowicz County), in the Łódź Voivodeship. The park is part of the Nieborów and Arkadia complex.
The aqueduct was built in 1784 to a design by Szymon Bogumił Zug, as an element of the sentimental garden founded by Helena Radziwiłłowa. It serves as a bridge over a stream at its mouth into the pond. From the outset it was designed as an artificial, romantic ruin, using original fragments of sculptures and architectural details.
A two-storey brick structure over a cascade, styled after an ancient aqueduct, in the picturesque setting of the romantic garden.
An attraction for lovers of garden architecture, history and art, and for tourists visiting the Nieborów-Arkadia complex.
The park is open seasonally; opening hours and park admission tickets are set by the Museum in Nieborów and Arkadia.
Arkadia (Nieborów commune); accessible by car.
