Add namespace in XAML:

<Window ...
        xmlns:winforms="clr-namespace:System.Windows.Forms;assembly=System.Windows.Forms"
        xmlns:charting="clr-namespace:System.Windows.Forms.DataVisualization.Charting;assembly=System.Windows.Forms.DataVisualization"
        Title="MainWindow" Height="350" Width="525" >
...

<Grid>
	<WindowsFormsHost>
		<wf:Chart x:Name="Chart1"/>
	</WindowsFormsHost>
</Grid>
