Church of the Immaculate Heart of Mary

Highlight • Religious Site

In 1964, a chapel was organized in Machory with its own clergy, but employed by the parish in Żarnów. Officially, Bishop Edward Materski erected the local parish on September 1, 1989. He entrusted the rectory to Father Marian Strzałkowski. The parish church was built thanks to the efforts of Fathers Kazimierz Kasprzyk, Leopold Łabędzki and Jan Mazurkiewicz. The last renovation works were carried out in 2008. At that time, a document from the beginning of the 20th century was found, which informs about the foundation of an altar and a manor chapel by a local heir of German nationality, Mr. Bayer. This altar was moved to the parish church.

Ruins of the Tile and Paper Factory in Machory

Highlight • Historical Site

In 1898, on the premises of the former ironworks, the then owner Ludwik Bayer opened a tile and cardboard factory, one of the most important in the Russian partition. Tiles were made using white clay extracted in Makhory, in a mine that had existed since the 19th century, and marl imported from various parts of Poland. At the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, the factory employed around 200 workers. The plant had its own sales warehouses in Warsaw, Łódź, St. Petersburg, Moscow and Odessa. In the initial years of production, ceramic stove tiles from the Makhory factory delighted with their various decorations. Patterns depicting genre and historical scenes were also produced. Makhory products enjoyed popularity throughout the Russian Empire (they were used to cover stoves at all stations of the Trans-Siberian Railway), all the way to Vladivostok. In the interwar years, a generator was installed in the factory, which supplied electricity to the plant and the manor buildings. It was powered by a Francis water turbine that had previously powered rolling mills. These devices operated until 1970.

The remains of the tile and paper mill complex include factory buildings (without the original equipment) and a well-preserved drive system of the plant, together with the water damming and supply system.
