Here in Warsaw is where a young Frederic Chopin spent his formative years, completing his training as a pianist. The Chopin family was not initally centered at this apartment, but were spurred into moving here by the death of the youngest daughter, Emilia, from tuberculosis. Frederic lived here from 1827-1830 with his famliy, after which he left Poland for Paris, France. The Parlor became a museum dedicated to Chopin in 1954, and has since closed in 2014. 

While not much is known about the childhood of Kean, his birth would eventually lead to a revolutionary type of Shakesperian performance. Kean not only changed the way that actors were perceived, he forever revitalized the way that Shakespeare was performed on stage. Most likely born out of wedlock, which would have been considered disgraceful then, Kean had a poor childhood and had to work hard to eventually become an actor.
