From the 16th century there was a mansion, probably a defensive house, the castle on the site of the current palace. At the beginning of the 19th century the old manor house fell into disrepair and was no longer suitable for living. In the middle of the 19th century, General Wincenty Krasiński bought and restored the property. In 1856 a neo-classical palace was built on his orders, and the neighboring mansion from 1829 was intended for his son Zygmunt, who lived there in the summer of 1857. After his death, the estate was inherited by the daughter of the poet Maria, wife of Count Edward Alexander Raczyński. At the beginning of the 20th century, the Raczyński family rebuilt the palace and gave it its current form. Source Wikipedia from Polish goolge translation
