Pałac Deskurów w Radomiu, Neoclassical building on the Market Square in Radom, Poland
Pałac Deskurów w Radomiu is a one-storey neoclassical building at Market Square 14, with a seven-axis facade whose shallow central projection is framed by four pilasters and topped by a pediment. A rusticated band separates the floors, the windows have profiled surrounds, and the ground floor of the Grodzka Street and parish church elevations is rusticated, the Grodzka side also carrying a projection.
The palace was built in 1824–1825 for Andrzej Deskur. After 1830, outbuildings were added, forming a single block of buildings. The complex, also called Kamienica Deskurów, is entered in the heritage register under numbers 761 (1972) and 418/A/90 (1990). Since 2017 the whole quarter between the Market Square, Rwańska and Grodzka streets and the parish church has been rebuilt for museum, educational and office use.
After the 2017 reconstruction, the buildings became a single complex for museum, educational and office use. It houses the Instytut Miejski, which organises cultural events and exhibitions on the city's history, and the Radomskie Towarzystwo Naukowe. The complex also links to the former Kamienica Czarneckich at Rynek 15, built 1808–1811 for a merchant family, with a shared inner courtyard.
The palace stands at Market Square 14, within the block bounded by Rwańska and Grodzka streets and the parish church. Since the 2017 reconstruction the connected townhouses form one building with a shared inner courtyard, so enter from the side of the square or from Grodzka Street. The building now serves museum, educational and office functions.
The building is also known as Kamienica Deskurów, and it shares an inner courtyard with the house at Rynek 15 / Rwańska 2, built in 1808–1811 for a merchant family and called Kamienica Czarneckich. The two form one connected block.
