Stay in guest rooms in the Palace Forge
YOUR VISIT
This year we invite you to visit the park, where you can admire the progress of the reconstruction of the Siberia pavilion. The rooms and restaurant in the Palace Forge are also open. Due to the renovation after the fire, the main building of the palace is unavailable to visitors.
The park is open every day from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. throughout the year.
WELCOME
All history and art lovers, families with children, cyclists, motorcyclists and tourists staying in the area are welcome to visit the palace. Visitors are welcome to the main palace building along with the orangery, historic English park and ground floor of the summer villa Siberia, which houses a permanent exhibition on the history of the complex. There is a restaurant in which regional dishes, homemade cakes, and good coffee are served in The Palace Forge (Kuźnia Pałacowa) just opposite the palace gate.
VISITING THE PALACE
The main attraction is the 18th-century palace, which is entirely open to the public. Tickets are available at the shop just next to the main entrance. From there, you walk into the hall, where the original black oak panelling has been preserved in excellent condition due to the durability of the material. The doors located along the main axis of the palace lead to the most representative part of the building - the ballroom with 18th-century decorations on the ceiling.
There are two blue rooms with temporary exhibitions to the left of the ballroom. In the warm months of the year, you can go out onto the terrace and parterre garden.
The door on the right leads to the Pompeian room with original wall grotesques, and then to the living room. At the end of the enfilade there is an orangery with fountains and filled with warm-loving plants. On the first floor, there is a theatre room and exhibition spaces with two permanent exhibitions - one of the paintings of Wanda Ostrowska, the other about Cyprian Norwid's correspondence with Joanna Kuczyńska, to whom he dedicated his poem 'To the Lady of Korczew'.
VISITING THE PARK
A walk in the park is a must for anyone who would like to get to know the spirit of Korczew Palace. The park, designed in the 1830s by Franciszek Jaszczołd on the basis of an earlier layout, is an integral part of the complex. The lime tree avenue stretching along the axis of the palace is particularly noteworthy. To the left of the avenue is the Menhir stone, which was probably an object of worship in pre-Christian times. Nearby, there is a building known as 'Trianon' which used to be an orangery (now a chapel) and the neo-Gothic well of St. John of Nepomuk.
The ground floor of Siberia, including the exhibition space, is adapted for wheelchair users. There is also an accessible toilet opposite the entrance.
