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 coats of arms of Rawicz, Smorczewski and Leszczyński, and an eastern porch with a balcony. The interior finishing was taken care of, 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 subsequent emigration of the family after the war, the palace underwent various changes, including: in the 1970s it became a school, and in the late 1980s it passed into private hands. The planned recreation center was not built, and the building returned to the heirs, falling into ruin. Today, the remains of the palace retain part of the original structure and facade.
