Palace in Rzuchów

The rectangular palace features yellow brick facades, a circular tower at the southeast corner, and three-sided projections on the southern and eastern sides.

Heinrich Himmler constructed this two-story palace in 1886, which later served as a Children's Home from the post-World War II period until the mid-1990s.

The structure incorporates traditional elements of Polish architecture, including decorative gables, columned portals, and semicircular window treatments on the first floor.

The palace stands partially restored following construction work in 2011-2012, which included new ceilings and roofing, though current access remains restricted.

The surrounding landscape park contains a 250-year-old pedunculate oak tree and various exotic shrubs, registered as a protected monument since 1981.
