Classicist magnate residence. Built by Prince Kazimierz Czartoryski before 1730 in the place of a wooden manor. It was rebuilt by his granddaughter, Duchess Aleksandra Ogińska, in the years 1776-1782 according to the design of the architect Stanisław Zawadzki, at which time the palace received a classical style and interior layout. In the 18th century, King Stanisław August Poniatowski was a guest at the palace, in whose honor a Tuscan column was erected, crowned with a baroque cross. In the palace there were various representatives of eminent families - Branicki, Potoccy, national heroes - Tadeusz Kościuszko and poets of the Enlightenment era - Julian Ursyn Niemcewicz, Franciszek Karpiński, Franciszek Kniaźnin. Currently, it houses the rector of the University of Natural Sciences and Humanities.
