Episcopal palace in Skierniewice, Episcopal palace in Skierniewice, Poland.

The Episcopal palace in Skierniewice is a Neoclassical castle with white facades, tall windows, and a central columned portico. The complete grounds span about 30 hectares and include several auxiliary buildings such as carriage houses and guard lodges alongside the main residence.

Architect Efraim Schroeger completed the final major renovation in 1780, transforming the building into the residence of the Gniezno archbishops. This renovation established the palace as a center of ecclesiastical authority in the region.

The palace was the residence of the archbishops of Gniezno, and its last permanent resident was Ignacy Krasicki, who often travelled to Berlin and Potsdam. After the partitions of Poland it housed Marshal Louis Davout, Konstanty Pawłowicz Romanow with his wife Joanna Grudzińska, and later the Russian tsars and their guests. Most visitors come during the two days of the Skierniewice Flower, Fruit and Vegetable Festival.

The palace and its adjoining gardens can be visited; the largest crowds come during the two days of the Skierniewice Festival of Flowers, Fruit and Vegetables. The grounds belong to the Research Institute of Horticulture, so some buildings may be in institutional use.

The palace's interiors retain stucco decoration, and the billiard room has a coffered ceiling with a plafond by Antoni Blank showing Aurora, the goddess of dawn. After World War II, Prof. Emil Chroboczek, director of the Institute of Vegetable Crops housed here from 1964 to 1972, worked to restore the palace and its park.
