The palace was composed of neo-Gothic, neo-Romanesque, and oriental elements. Built of brick and plastered, set on an irregular, elongated plan with an irregular shape. The building has a basement, two-storey in part with a residential attic covered with a hipped roof with sheet metal surfaces. The palace's body is strongly segmented and consists of cuboid elements. The building is dominated by a three-storey tower topped with a battlement and a Lombard frieze placed under the crowning cornice. Basically, the body consists of six juxtaposed bodies. The body most protruding to the front is also the main axis placed asymmetrically. It is preceded by a massive porch pierced by a Tudor arch, which houses the main entrance to the palace. Above it is an open terrace surrounded by a stone balustrade. Terrace doors finished with a pointed arch and tracery decoration. All the elements were composed as pseudo-towers. They were flanked on two sides by smooth corner pilaster strips and topped with a prominent crowning cornice, under which a Lombard frieze runs, above which a battlement was placed. On one of the side elevations, a pillared portico of the side entrance was squeezed between two tower masses. Window openings of various sizes and shapes.

The Cisie-Zagrudzie park and palace complex. The house was built at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries at the behest of the Twardowski family. The estate, originally called Cisie, was owned in 1783 by Dominik Przeździecki, the starost of Mińsk. In the 19th century, the estate passed into the possession of the family of the founders of the palace, and in 1909 it belonged to priest Stanisław Szaniawski. In the interwar years, the estate was in the possession of Jerzy Konopka. In the late 1920s, the estate belonged to Stanisław Klawe and the land amounted to 160 hectares. In 1927, the next owner was Józef Maria Mielżyński, who two years later passed it to Jerzy Konopka. Baron Jerzy Konopka (1887-1954) of the Nowina coat of arms, married since July 1914 to Maria Ludwika Sokołowska (1890-1944) of the Korab coat of arms, was the last pre-war owner of the Cisień estate and lived here in the years 1929-1944. After the end of World War II, a primary school and then teachers' apartments were placed in the palace. The palace was abandoned in the 1980s. In 1999, the building was taken over by a private owner. Currently, the house remains abandoned and is in poor technical condition. Around it are the remains of a park, in fairly good condition.

The Ostrówek estate, covering 353 ha, was owned by Stanisław Lipiński in the late 1920s. The manor house was built in 1923 in the style of a baroque-classicist Polish manor house. The building is single-storey with a usable attic, covered with a hipped roof with an extension on the axis topped with a wavy gable. The gable shows the date of construction above an oval window. The entrance is preceded by a balcony supported by two pairs of spindle-shaped columns. The manor house was probably built as a result of the expansion of an older building, a fragment of which survived as an annex to a newer building. The Ostrówek Manor House, built in 1923, reopened after a hundred years. The building changed its function from residential to cultural and social, which contributed to the popularisation of this place and the promotion of the entire area.

Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Siedlce. A brick church in the neo-Gothic style with a Latin cross plan according to the design of the provincial architect Zygmunt Zdański. Built in the years 1906–1912, at the initiative of Father Józef Scipio del Campo on a square donated by Ludwik Górski on behalf of the Land Credit Society. Consecrated on September 21, 1913 by Franciszek Jaczewski, Bishop of Lublin. Cathedral since January 25, 1924 by a papal bull of the Holy See. Finally finished in 1928 at the initiative of Father Julian Ryster from donations from the clergy and faithful on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of the resurrection of the diocese. In 1928 Dominik Biernacki completed the construction of the organ, which he had begun in 1914. During World War II, the stained glass windows were destroyed, later restored. The church underwent a thorough renovation in 1997–1998 (before the pilgrimage of Pope John Paul II in 1999, during which he visited Siedlce), when the presbytery was restored (replacement of the floor, transfer of the tabernacle) and a new stained glass window was made in the central window of the pediment.
