Name

[edit]

I moved this from a name that I felt was less precise and pretty OR ("Krakow Episcopal Palace (Warsaw)"), but I wonder if there is a better English rendition. Ping User:Nihil novi, User:Poeticbent? I looked at English sources. Perhaps either Palace of the Kraków Bishops or Kraków Bishops' Palace, each of which has at least one book using such a name, would sound better? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 20:53, 6 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

How many Kraków bishops were there who used the various palaces? "Bishop's Palace in Kraków" suggests that there was one Kraków bishop. If that's the case, I vote for "Palace of the Kraków Bishop in Warsaw", even if the original Polish pluralizes "bishop" for Polish historical stylistic reasons. Ditto for the other cities hosting such palaces.
