Krzezowice

About twenty kilometres west of Krakow lies a small town called Krzezowice. In mid-nineteenth century, a wealthy family had a palace built with influences from Italian renaissance.The palace was named Potocki Palace after the family’s name. The palace was in family’s hand until Second World War, when it was confiscated by Governor-General, Hans Frank. Frank and his family used the palace as a summer residence. Frank had minor rebuilds done, but otherwise kept it as it were.
