The reservoir on the Skierniewka (Łupia) River is already visible on maps of Skierniewice from the 15th century. Initially, the reservoir was located near the village of Dęba, which was later incorporated into the city of Skierniewice. It was practically untouched by humans until the second half of the 20th century. It was not until the 1970s that its lower section was excavated near Zadębie Street and the Zadębie district. As part of the reservoir's renovation carried out in the years 1996-1999, the current reservoir bowl was shaped.

The Primate's Palace - a palace and park complex built in the years 1610-1619 in Skierniewice. In the 18th century it was rebuilt and renovated several times. The palace received its final shape in 1780 according to the design of Efraim Schroeger. Two axes were added from the east. The facade and interior layout were reworked. A chapel and gallery were added. In the 19th century, the palace was expanded, adding neo-Renaissance features, and it regained its late Baroque appearance during renovation in the 1960s. The interiors are well-preserved with diverse details and stucco decoration. The chapel and the billiard room with a coffered ceiling and a ceiling by Antoni Blank depicting the mythological goddess of dawn - Jutrzenka (Aurora) are particularly noteworthy.

In 1979, the Skierniewice Voivode established the Heat Power Department within the Voivodeship Municipal and Housing Enterprise. July 1, 1979 is considered the date of the establishment of the first, separate organizational form of heating in Skierniewice and the province. The next stage was the establishment of the Voivodeship Heat Power Enterprise in 1982 by decision of the Voivode. In this organizational form, heating existed until November 14, 1992. At that time, the City Council in Skierniewice, under the Act of March 8, 1990 "On local government", passed a resolution on taking over the powers and obligations of the founding body in relation to the Heat Power Enterprise in Skierniewice. On 1 January 1993, this enterprise became a budgetary institution under the name of Zakład Energetyki Cieplnej, and then, from February 1995, the Branch of Cieplnej within Zakład Usług Komunalnych. On 1 January 1997, the City Council established single-member companies to perform municipal tasks, including Energetyka Cieplna Spółka z ograniczoną odpowiedzialnością, which operates to this day.
