The villa-park premise known as the Karolin-Marianów Villa is located in Wiązowno near Warsaw. On land purchased in about 1880 Karol Jan Szlenkier and his wife, Maria Szlenkier, born Grosser, built their summer suburban residence and laid out a park designed by Walerian Kronenberg, an acclaimed garden specialist. From the name of the owner the estate became known as the Karolin Dacha, and later – as the Karolin-Marianów Villa. Its successive owners – members of the Chrzanowski families, heirs of the Szlenkiers – retained this name which only recently has been replaced by the Chrzanowski Manor; this new version has been created artificially by ignoring archival material. The villa was designed in the spirit of the Italian Renaissance, and despite later changes it remains the main accent of the whole premise. Its noble proportions have been preserved, and although it has been subjected to certain modifications the building still presents harmonious elevations unencumbered with excessive decorations. The Karolin Marianów Villa premise has retained the majority of the original and distinctive elements of its spatial composition. The premise – symbol and testimony of the generations once inhabiting it as the former summer residence of a renowned and much valued family of Warsaw industrialists and members of the Chrzanowski family – worthy contributors to Polish culture and medicine, deserves to be guaranteed conservation protection under its historical name of the Karolin-Marianów Villa.
