Palace in Poręba Żegoty, Noble residence in Poręba Żegoty, Poland
The palace complex includes multiple structures such as the main building, chapel-mausoleum, granary, manager's house, and agricultural buildings within its grounds.
The estate belonged to the Szembek family until 1945, and during World War II the palace served as a recreation center for Auschwitz-Birkenau personnel.
The palace represents regional architectural evolution, transformed from a wooden manor of the Korycinski family into a late Baroque style by Franciszek Szwarcenberg-Czerny.
Visitors can observe the remaining fragments of the outbuilding and explore the park grounds, which contain fish ponds and a stone statue of St. John Nepomucen.
The Szembek family mausoleum, constructed between 1920 and 1922, stands in the park as a chapel containing the graves of Alexander Szembek and relatives.
