Ruins of the Smorczewski palace complex from the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. In 1879, Medard Adolf Smorczewski purchased an estate in Stryjów, where he expanded the existing manor house, transforming it into a neo-Gothic palace. After his death, he passed it on to his son Feliks, who expanded the estate with new buildings and a complex of ponds. The palace was distinguished by a tower with the Rawicz, Smorczewski and Leszczyński coats of arms, and an eastern porch with a balcony. The interior finishing was carefully considered, and the palace was decorated with colorful fabrics, parquet floors and neo-Renaissance reliefs. After World War I, a neo-Romanesque cemetery chapel was built in the park. After the death of Count Feliks in 1943, and the family's emigration after the war, the palace underwent various changes, including becoming a school in the 1970s, and in the late 1980s it passed into private hands. The planned recreation center was not built, and the building returned to its heirs, falling into ruin. Today, the remains of the palace retain part of its original structure and façade.

It's nice to notice, when passing the bridge, pay attention to the right side.
