The current church of Our Lady of Częstochowa was built in the years 1982-1993 according to the design of Danuta Szafnicka and Marek Mirski, thanks to the great financial effort of the parishioners, as well as the excellent organization of the work of the then parish priests: Fr. Tadeusz Kraszewski, Fr. Ryszard Pajda and Fr. Marian Wnuk. The church was consecrated on September 29, 2001 by the Bishop of Łowicz, Alojzy Orszulik SAC. The massive rotunda-shaped structure with a tower conceals a single-nave interior. Church of the parish of St. Thomas the Apostle.

The locomotive shed was built in 1845 along with the railway line from Warsaw. In 1861, a turntable was installed in the locomotive shed, and in the following years the local locomotive shed was rebuilt. In 1879, the locomotive shed was expanded to 24 stations. During World War I, on the order of General Ludendorff, the buildings were destroyed on October 21, 1914. After the end of the war, the locomotive shed serviced freight traffic on the section from Warsaw to Piotrków and local passenger traffic. From 1915, it operated as a class II locomotive shed. In 1939, it was downgraded to an auxiliary locomotive shed. During World War II, the facility was expanded. New buildings in the modernist style were erected from red brick. Ty1 freight locomotives and Pd5 locomotives used for local passenger traffic were stationed in Skierniewice. After the war, a steel roof structure with a triangular ridge skylight was installed in the fan-shaped hall instead of the old wooden one, and a welding shop and compressor room were added. The locomotive shed serviced group trains and shunts. In 1970, a diesel locomotive was delegated to Skierniewice. Electric locomotives had been stationed in Skierniewice since mid-1987. In 1989, the stationing of steam locomotives ended. On 31 October 1991, the locomotive shed was liquidated. The premises house a collection of historical railway exhibits acquired by the Polish Association of Railway Enthusiasts[3] (PSMK). In 1994, the locomotive shed complex was entered into the register of historical monuments, and in 2002 it became the property of PSMK[2]. The buildings of the facility are being renovated thanks to support from, among others, Ministry of Culture and National Heritage, Łódź Voivodeship Government, Skierniewice City Office and various railway industry companies. The facility is open to visitors only on designated dates or upon request for organized groups.
