In 1910 this was a mansion built for the Polish royalty and it survived as a government mansion until 1946/1947. Then it was turned into a college to educate young people who needed trade and education skills after the devastation of WWII. Then in the late 70's or early 80's it was converted into a home for children and young adults with mental health and disabilities. That ended in 1997 and the house has been empty an decaying ever since. The room that the brother thought was a living room was actually a ballroom for the wonderful parties held there when the Polish royalty inhabited the house. Hope this helps clarify things.

...it also answers the guys question about 'why the palace was built in such a small town?' The palace was originally a massive estate with hundreds of acres of private hunting grounds, and after the aristocracy was abolished and forced to leave, that the surrounding land was developed. Over time, more buildings were set up next to the palace to create the 'small town' that exists now.

This is clearly a tartarian building that probably predates the 1900s. Poland has beautiful tartarian architecture. Not to be confused with the tartarian minority people of russia, its a mudflood building. The so called royalty hijacked these buildings all over the world, it was never built for them anyways. Those who were wealthy they stoled from and those who were poor they enslaved.

Im Polish and its very nice to see you there in my country!! Thank You very much for this video, much Love from poland xoxo

I am always impressed by the background music you put on your vids. It's always relevant to the place you're at, and even the time in history the building would have 'lived' in. This particular building seems more institutional, rather than a palace. Maybe a sanitarium or an asylum. One of the doors on the first floor had a sign that read 'Direktor' or Director (in English), and that bathroom was not designed for a family, even a large one, to use. Must have been something institutional at some point in its' life. Great find! Thanks for filming it for us!

Sarah Green Dyrektor can also mean the principal or the headmaster of a school. And that explain the large bathrooms. It could've been a school of some sort

Many palaces became to expensive to keep so many were taken over the government or given to the church when the owner died. However since this place in Poland, I would not be surprised if the Nazis took the place over and used for their own evil purposes. After the war the building was probably taken over by the local government and may have been used as a asylum or some other government purpose? It makes me sad when I see such great historical building just get destroyed because of abandonment. (If peopl were living there chances the building would not have been a victim of arson. The one thing I love about living in Minneapolis and St Paul is all the historic homes. Unfortunately to many were lost in the 1970's and 1980's because cost and new needs such as parking lots we saw a lot of great building get torn down.

Please give our best to Jordy. I wonder at rhe laughs and tears this place has witnessed over time. It must have been gorgeous in its heyday... As usual, Leslie, your caring, respectful demeanor shines through.

Im not sure how you could be in Poland and not realize it was the Polish Coat of arms and mistake it for a Nazi symbol... That was when I was like...this person, for all their exploring, has zero source of context. It was clear to me early in the video that it had been used as a government administrative type building by the paint...as damaged as it is, you can see its that communist era boring beige, white and weird green... the public bathroom should have been a major hint and the polish coat of arms the ultimate clue in it wasnt used at a palace for a LONG time. All such grandeur likely ended in World War II or even before...

It also said "Dyrektor" on the back of a door, which is polish for director and yes public toilet stalls... def looks like the building was used as government offices at one point.

Many stately homes have been converted into boarding schools--I'd look for more evidence of that.

Firefighters received a fire report today around 7am. When they came to the place of fire the whole roof of the palace was covered. " There was no part of the roof rack, for the fire probably had spread from the early hours of the night, Capt. Kamil Rogasik from the KP in the Mountain - Firefighters on the spot found a very advanced situation and immediately started extinguishing. Because there are no media in the building, we do not exclude arson, "added Capt. Rogasik. The fire was created in the attic and the biggest damage was to the roof. The fire of the palace caused stir among the inhabitants. The object has been unprotected and destructive for years. " It must have been arson, there are no installations in the palace. Everyone could go in and out without any problems - says resident Bełcza. Residents with regret remember the times of the glory of the palace. " Once in this palace was an agricultural school, it was all beautiful, well maintained. It was our community good, our business card. "he adds. It turns out that there have been fires in the palace before. " This is probably the third fire," the resident notes . "It was known what was happening and no one reacted to the object to secure it, " he emphasizes. About 30 firefighters and volunteers participate in firefighting. Storing objects can take until late in the evening. ( Translation from Polish newspaper about the fire)

How sad. It looks like a beautiful baronial home. The ceiling in what you guys describe as the living room is a real giveaway of the grandeur of the home. It isn't beyond being restored but would need a lot of work and deep pockets.

i still cant comprehend how can buildings like these just be left in ruins, especially in europe where such buildings have high cultural value

You never cease to bring the most awesome places to show us! Thank you! You are the best and most respectful when showing these buildings! Thank you!!

What a majestic find, so awesomely beautiful in it's own way I can just imagine how amazing it was in all it's glory. You always find a variety of abandoned buildings. And the beginning with you standing there and it engulfing you was a perfect picture. Love your find and thank you for all that you do Leslie!!....

Beautiful as usual. Prayers and best wishes for a speedy recovery for Jordy. Great job Leslie.

I really like the way you and your buddies show the different abandoned homes. The way you put yourselves back in time to explain what we are looking at. I think it's amazing when there are blankets and clothing in the closets, ready to be used. Thanks for the tours!

Thank you for showing this! I’ve seen a lot of fantastic places through your videos. Fantastic!

What wonderful young men the "Bros Of Decay" are! Thankful for the thoughtful and respectful tours you give us.

I also am glad that you take your exploring seriously. It's wonderful to watch.

I watch a lot of these abandoned places videos and your channel is the only one I've subscribed to. You don't mess with clickbait, drama, histrionics, ..... just good honest exploration and showing a real respect for the places and a real empathy towards their former owners You are genuinely nice, decent, people! 'Subscribed' 'Liked' and 'Shared'!! Bravo!

The music flowed right along with the video. Good to see you guys out and about exploring the decay. Way cool.

I love the respect and admiration Bros of Decay exhibit in all their videos. This video was awesome and I always look forward to new videos. Thank, guys.

I have a feeling that is was a school or university. If you look at the bathroom, that doesn't look like it was for a private situation. You als came past a door that had a sign with director on it. But awsome place!

No, it wouldn't. The place likely hasn't been used as a private palace in the past 80 years or even 100. Context clues about the choices in paint color alone (beige, chalky green and white) are clearly communist era administrativ ebuilding standard colors. The coat of arms is of Poland...the republic. There was seemingly no other grand symbolism left, all likely removed by the communist government and painted over. Direktor on one of the doors...palaces don't have directors.

It's absolutely a gorgeous place! I love the brickwork and window system integrated into the entrance balcony!

thank you for this awesome video. i really love to see all abandoned palace, there are so much stories behind it. The music also makes this video much more relax to watch.

Love that you show all that you do, these videos are great! Thanks!

Everytime I watch your videos I always imagine what it used to look like and who may have lived there, you always have some ideas of what you think and a way with words that helps the imagination!! Great job again Lesley...give my best to Jordy hope he's well. 😘

Outstanding explore, thumbs up. Great video!

There’s more inside then I thought there would be thank you for taking me inside! Must have been a beautiful place!

Fantastic video. Interesting, great photographic work, nice background music, beautiful subject. Will watch more of your stuff.

I love your channel! I live in Massachusetts and it’s home to a lot of abandoned mental facilities and hospitals as well as a few airbases and theatres, courthouses(it was so beautiful inside) and it’s so beautiful how around you you find so many untouched places it’s a lot harder to find around me everything usually is vandalized or empty but I can always appreciate the old architecture and character of the home

Always enjoy your videos. I love history and imagining what the places were like when they were first built and what life was like for the people who inhabited them. I also appreciate when you or other commentators know and share the history of your finds! I can't travel far anymore so your videos are a very special treat! Thank you for well presented videos! Were you able to set the little bird free from his glass prison? Hope so :)

When I lived in Germany we went hiking in Luxembourg. We found castle ruins and wanted to go through them. A part of the wall had crumbled and I found an old Roman coin in what had been the mortar. I was thrilled. That was over 50 years ago and I still have it!

love how you imagine what the owner was thinking, you both are awesome, miss seeing your brother on video!

I assume from reading the comments that you were able to rescue the trapped bird. I think many would have loved to see the bird fly to freedom. Perhaps next time a rescue presents itself you will be able to film it. Acts of compassion are lovely and we would enjoy them so much! Bless the critters and the people that love and respect them. Great work as always...

I love your imaginative narration! Instead of being like everyone else and trying to be scary and spooky you have your own unique story telling abilities. Reality with some history and a great ability to make us (me) tap into my own imagination while connecting to the possible former residence. Thank you!!

Your channel is one of the best "abandoned places". It seems you really do care about these places and and the history. Pretty cool. Ty

This was particularly interesting to me because of the exposed brickwork which demonstrate how such building were built during that period. Once everything is covered with plaster, wood, marble, etc. it is difficult to imagine the construction underneath. Another visit that is appreciated 100%.
