Sandomierz Palace in Radom

Sandomierz Palace, also known as the building of the Sandomierz Province Commission, is the classicist pearl of Radom, located at ul. Żeromskiego 53. The building was erected in the years 1825–1827 according to the design of the well -known architect Antonio Wziezi, on the initiative of the authorities of the Kingdom of Poland, which in 1816 established Radom the seat of the newly created Sandomierz Province. The impressive main body with a fifteen -axis facade is decorated with a monumental Tuscan portico with four columns and a triangular tympanum, and two extreme projections crown the attic walls with classic recesses. From the beginning, the palace performed an administrative function - first as the seat of provincial and governorate authorities, and then, after regaining independence, as the seat of the eldership. During World War II, the building was expanded by the German occupation administration with a modernist northern wing, as plans to make Radom the capital of the general district of the governorate.

After the war, the building served, among others Municipal and voivodship authorities, and in 1964 a concert hall of the Radom Symphony Orchestra was established in its courtyard. Currently, it houses the Municipal Office and the delegations of Masovian institutions. Architecturally, the building connects classicism with elements of subsequent modernism - it is one of the most representative buildings of Radom, which is also part of the city tourist trail "Radom monuments". Is located in the vicinity of other historical and cultural facilities, constituting the administrative and symbolic center of the city.
