The pond on which the Adam Chełmoński Manor is located

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.

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.

Amazing reservoir 💪, worth a visit

The 6-hectare reservoir serves as a retention reservoir. Its main purpose is flood protection, but it is also an ideal place for residents and tourists to relax. At its shore, there is a square with a playground, picnic tables and a gazebo. Bathing is prohibited in the reservoir, but it is still a great place for a family picnic, a bike trip or a walk. In autumn and spring, the area changes into a kingdom of birds. Here you can see herons, swans and several species of ducks, including teals, mallards and pochards. It is worth taking a closer look at the latter - these seasoned divers can dive to a depth of 2.5 meters!
