Radziwiłł Palace in Balice, Noble residence in Balice, Poland

The white stone palace stands near Krakow Airport, featuring classical architecture with a central building and two symmetrical wings extending from it.

The original structure from the 16th century was destroyed during the Swedish invasion, leading to reconstruction by the Szemberk family and later acquisition by Radziwiłł nobles.

The palace represents the architectural preferences of Polish nobility, incorporating elements from different periods while maintaining its classical composition.

The National Research Institute of Animal Production currently manages the palace grounds, which are situated 12 kilometers west of Krakow's city center.

The palace gardens contain century-old trees and walking paths that connect to the surrounding research facilities dedicated to animal sciences.
