PERMANENT ACTIVITIES AND REGIONAL EDUCATION

Before the Palace was built in Baranowice, the area of Zory’s largest district belonged to many owners. The earliest, as early as the 15th century, their owner was Helena Korybutna, wife of Prince John II. The duchess donated the land to the knight Mikundey. In 1436 they were bought out by Mikolaj Szoszowski, who then sold them to Jerzy Osinski.

Exhibitions

The Durants’ reign in Baranowice lasted continuously for more than a century, and during this long period they influenced not only the area around their estate, but also the life of the entire town. One of the more influential members of the family was the son of the heiress, Baron Emil Henry Erdmann Konrad von Durant de Sénégas, who was appointed landrat (starosta) of the Rybnik district by the king.

The project entitled. “In care of the Silesian heritage – renovation of the Park and Palace Complex in Zory” co-financed by the European Union under the European Regional Development Fund.

Operational Program Infrastructure and Environment 2014-2020

Priority: VIII Protection of cultural heritage and development of cultural resources

Measure: 8.1 Protection of cultural heritage and development of cultural resources

The main objective of the project is to preserve cultural heritage, leading to an increase in the importance of culture as a factor in socio-economic development. Implementation of this project will allow preservation and accessibility (including tourism) of a historic site of supra-regional significance. Thanks to the renovation of the Palace and Park Complex, the number of visitors to the monument will increase, and thus the awareness of the region’s residents about its history and heritage. In addition, thanks to the implementation of the project, new jobs will be created, which will affect the economic revival of the region.

The main objective of the project in question is to save the unique palace building along with the park, which is an exceptional example of palace architecture in Zory and in this part of the province. The palace has a chance to become one of the important centers on the artistic map of Poland. Its advantage is also its architecture, which can become a wonderful backdrop for artistic activities, artists’ groupings and open-air events, as well as business meetings.

The project involves taking comprehensive measures to renovate a historic palace from the 17th century, together with the development of the adjacent surroundings and park. The building will include a section with multi-purpose rooms for artistic activities, a catering section and an exhibition section.
