Fairy tale

The old water mill in Korytowo is a historic, 19th-century building on the Pisia Gągolina river. Built in the 1870s, it supplied flour for the workers of the developing Żyrardów. Today, it is a picturesque ruin, accessible on local cycling and hiking routes.

Nice place, highly recommend

I don't know if it's more beautiful inside or out. I've been there several times, and it always makes me stop and go inside.

Mill on the Pisi River in Korytów. The history of the 3-storey mill is partly connected with Dittrich and Hielle; the then owners of the Żyrardów Plants. They decided to start their own brick production. This was connected with the dynamic development of Żyrardów and the expansion of the factory, as well as the need to provide housing for an increased number of workers and administrative and technical staff. For this purpose, they leased 20 morgas of land from the Krasińskis, where there were rich deposits of high-quality clay, and in 1870 a brickyard was built. The brick from Radziejowice, apart from its good properties, was characterized by a dark red color. It was exported to Russia. The entire Żyrardów factory was built from it, as well as many public utility buildings. Hielle and Dittrich established social relations with Count Krasiński, who willingly hosted wealthy entrepreneurs from Żyrardów. Both parties liked gambling. After winning at cards with Count Krasiński, Dittrich and Hielle became owners of the mill settlements of Koryty and Hamernia, and consequently of the mills. For the exploitation of the forest and the transport of bricks, Żyrardów entrepreneurs built a narrow-gauge railway line Żyrardów - Radziejowice.

A chapel founded in 1945. Crosses were erected to commemorate an important event or to confirm one's religious commitment. They were built in gratitude for saving a life or receiving a grace. They were also boundary markers that marked the end and beginning of a village or as road signs. Karawaks protected against epidemics. In Poland, there is also a custom of erecting crosses by the roads to commemorate tragic deaths in road accidents. Crosses are made of various materials. An example are crosses with Christ cut out of sheet metal. They were mainly created in the period from the second half of the 19th to the mid-20th century.

In the 16th century, Ojrzanów belonged to the Ojrzanowski family, including Jan Ojrzanowski in 1526. Later, the owner was Piotr Goryński. In the second half of the 16th century, the estate belonged to the Miński family, and in the 17th century to the Zarembas. At the beginning of the 19th century, the owners of Ojrzanów were the Strażowie family. From 1834, the estate was managed by the Stadnicki family. In the 20th century, the estate was owned by the Dziewulski family. The palace located in Ojrzanów was probably built in the late 19th century by Władysław Marconi. It is a classicist, single-storey building with a two-storey central part in both elevations, which is topped with a triangular pediment and preceded from the front by a porch with four thin columns supporting a balcony. The edges of the axis of the front elevation are slightly revitalized and rusticated. The palace is covered with a low hipped roof. The decorative element is the numerous chimneys growing in different parts of the roof.
