Czartoryski Palace in Puławy - a palace in Puławy, whose beginnings date back to the second half of the 17th century and are associated with the history of the magnate families: Lubomirski, Sieniawski and, above all, Czartoryski. The first Baroque palace of a semi-defensive nature was built in Puławy in the years 1671-1679 by the Grand Marshal of the Crown Stanisław Herakliusz Lubomirski. The palace was designed by the Dutch architect Tylman van Gameren. The building had a rectangular shape with four alcoves in the corners, and was prepared to perform defensive functions. From this phase of the building, the seventeenth-century Baroque entrance hall with preserved original colonnade and the form and decoration of the vault has been preserved, in a state close to its original. The first garden was also created at that time, of which it is known that there were alleys and regular carpet parterres below the escarpment. In 1706, when Puławy became the property of the Sieniawski family, Swedish troops destroyed the palace and its surroundings during the Great Northern War.

The Czartoryski era in Puławy ended in 1831. Prince Adam Jerzy Czartoryski, owner of Puławy since 1812, was sentenced in absentia to beheading by the tsar for his participation in the November Uprising, and all of his estates in the Russian partition were confiscated. Part of the palace and its surroundings were taken to Russia, part was sold at auction, e.g. the Meissonier wainscoting from the Golden Hall. It was possible to save the collections from the Temple of the Sibyl and the Gothic House, as well as the library (about 60 thousand volumes), which were taken in stages to Paris (they later returned to Krakow, where the Czartoryski Museum was established on their basis in 1876). Zofia Zamoyska, née Czartoryska, took some of the sculptures (including "Tancred and Clorinda", a sarcophagus, lions, an obelisk dedicated to Prince Józef Poniatowski) to Podzamcze near Maciejowice, from where they were returned to Puławy in 1947. Many elements of small park architecture disappeared after 1840.
