Karski Palace in Włostów, Neo-Renaissance palace in Włostów, Poland.
Karski Palace in Włostów is a Neo-Renaissance palace with approximately 30 rooms, including three large salons with marble floors and high ceilings. The interior spaces reflect careful craftsmanship and design typical of mid-19th century aristocratic architecture.
The palace was built between 1854 and 1860 by Stanisław Karski and remained under family ownership thereafter. German forces took control after 1942, marking the end of its period as a private residence.
The palace library contained 9,000 volumes focusing on astronomy, history, and philosophy, reflecting the intellectual interests of the Karski family.
The building stands in ruins today and requires caution when approaching due to structural instability. The location sits near the Opatów-Sandomierz road close to Włostów.
The palace connects to a nearby church through an underground passage. Two stone lions still guard the eastern entrance to the grounds.
