The article discusses non-extant monuments of wooden architecture in the former landed estate of Zakrzow in Central Poland (the voivodeship of Kielce). The manor in Zakrzow was a wooden, single-storied building made of plastered arch beams and with a frame construction, probably dating from the end of the eighteenth century; a brick kitchen was added in the nineteenth century. Originally, this was a five-axis two-track edifice with interiors symmetrically arranged vis-a-vis the oblong and transversal axis of the building. Presumably, the erection of the kitchen was accompanied by changes in the arrangement of the adjoining older parts of the manor. The second historical object in Zakrzow was an old larch beam granary, raised on stone underpinning. It was covered with a four — slope roof topped with a straw thatch. The date 1788 was carved on a beam over the entrance. In 1939 the complex was composed of a manor, up to twenty farm biuldings, a garden, an orchard and a rather extensive park on an area of slightly over 26 hectares. The park was to a great extent composed of tens of old oaks. Both in the park and close to the farm buildings there were several pools and two fish ponds. The manorial premises included a neo-Italian garden, an ornamental driveway, and a well-developed configuration of courtyards connected with a naturalistic park of tall vegetation. After the second world war, the manor house was burned down (1949), and the old granary pulled down in the mid-1960s. Thanks to the efforts of the former owners, the state commenced the conservation of the park, recognizing ten of the oldest oaks to be monuments of Nature; the whole object listed among monuments of national culture.
