Abstract
PoRachunki Warszawskie and PoRachunki w Łazienkach are projects that introduce recreational mathematics to public spaces. These illustrated mathematical puzzles reference iconic locations, buildings, and monuments in Warsaw. For over a decade they have been presented in various locations and formats, targeting diverse audiences. Through this initiative I encourage engagement with mathematics outside of the school environment, offering the opportunity to interact with mathematical problems at one’s own place, time (and risk!).
