Actually, there are two chapels, both rebuilt. The originals were stolen, and one even burned down; their tangled history is described on a plaque nearby.

There's a large tree growing by the café behind the palace. I remember it being a rare species, and I think it's a Ginkgo biloba. Such a specimen is unique in Poland. It might be a tulip tree, though. I can't remember exactly, but I think someone might be interested in this tree, especially if they're as interested in plants and trees as she is.

Recreational and sports areas located in Grodzisk Mazowiecki at ul. Stawowa 10. It is assumed that they were created in the 19th century as a result of the damming of the Rokicianka River. In 2012, on the 490th anniversary of Grodzisk Mazowiecki receiving city rights, the ponds were revitalized, including a complete reconstruction of the facility, including cleaning and widening the water reservoirs, and planting plants.

The current palace was built between the tower and the early Baroque palace (currently non-existent) and received its current form at the turn of the 18th and 19th centuries after a classicist reconstruction carried out by Kazimierz Krasiński, the Crown Campiander, according to the design of Jakub Kubicki. At that time, a columned porch with a terrace in front of the main entrance was also built. The expansion of the palace complex was later continued by Józef Wawrzyniec Krasiński, who created a landscape park around the palace that exists to this day and rebuilt the small castle in the neo-Gothic style, which is the remains of the former Radziejowski tower. Over the following decades, Radziejowice was visited by people of culture, including Juliusz Kossak, Henryk Sienkiewicz, Lucjan Rydel, Jarosław Iwaszkiewicz, Józef Chełmoński, Stanisław Masłowski.

Adam Chełmoński Manor is a historical monument located in Adamowizna, in the commune of Grodzisk Mazowiecki. It is a branch of the Cultural Centre in Grodzisk Mazowiecki and serves an educational and cultural function. The manor offers various forms of education, including permanent classes and cultural events. The manor is located in Adamowizna Park. The history of Adamowizna Park is inextricably linked to the Chełmoński family. Around 1899, Adam Chełmoński, an outstanding doctor specializing in pulmonary diseases, at the urging of his brother Józef - a famous painter - purchased an old steward's house located in Kuklówka. The building was moved and placed on brick foundations in the settlement of Młyniska na Stare, which later took the name Adamowizna - after the name of the owner. Adam Chełmoński chose an extremely picturesque place for his headquarters. The manor house was situated on a hill, surrounded by the Mrowna River, which flows around the estate on almost every side, in the vicinity of a pond and forest. This charming place was the home of the Chełmoński family, and Józef Chełmoński himself was a frequent guest, as he loved the surrounding landscapes and nature. The manor house even appears in his painting "Winter. Manor House at Dusk", which is currently located in the Silesian Museum in Katowice. In 2006, the Grodzisk Mazowiecki commune purchased the property from the Chełmoński family and began efforts to restore the building and the surrounding park. After years of renovation work, in November 2020, the building was officially opened to residents and tourists as a branch of the Grodzisk Mazowiecki Cultural Center.
