Dietel Palace (Polish: Pałac Dietla) is a neo-baroque palace built for Heinrich Dietel, located in Sosnowiec (Poland).
The palace consists of two parts: narrower north and broader the south. Facades are made of brick, with details made of plaster and artificial stone. The building is covered with mansard roofs.[1]
The interiors of the palace have retained some of the original equipment and decor, which makes the property a particularly valuable monument. The representative rooms are located on the first floor. These are:
The first plans of the building were created in the 1880s and signed by Waligórski. The final project was created in 1890. Around the year 1900, with the completion of the palace, a parked walled premise, with a conservatory and elements of small architecture, was created. The palace was part of the patronage team, including the park, the former factory, the workers' settlement, and the evangelical church. As a Dietel family residence, the palace functioned until 1945.
