In Oblęgorek is the estate of the Polish Nobel Prize winner Henryk Sienkiewicz, which the writer received as a gift from the society on the occasion of the 25th anniversary of his literary work. Since 1958, the palace has housed a museum dedicated to his life and work, which is a branch of the National Museum in Kielce. The palace itself is surrounded by a park designed by the famous Warsaw gardener, the creator of the Saxon Garden, Franciszek Szanior.

Currently, inside the palace, the exhibition faithfully reflects the layout of the rooms and their furnishings from the time when the Sienkiewicz family lived in the palace. It consists of a study with a solid oak desk, a small gallery of family portraits, a collection of Middle Eastern and African weapons, part of the writer's library, books on historical subjects, translations of the writer's works into foreign languages often with dedications from the authors, works by his favorite writers - Dickens, Byron, France and ancient writers, anniversary gifts, memorabilia mainly related to Sienkiewicz's literary profession.
