This Brzezice Manor House as an example of changing the function of a structure from production to a manor house

This article presents the history of the manor house in Brzezice in the municipality of Piaski as an unusual example of changing the function of a manor house/production facility into a residence/ manor house. Even nowadays, the transformation from a productive to a residential function is not a frequent occurrence and this change took place at the turn of the 19th and 20th century. The building originally had a single-space interior with a vaulted ceiling hidden in a mansard roof measuring 7.5×23 m and 7 m high. The walls and vaults were entirely made of brick, and not of the commonly occurring limestone, which is quite unique on a local scale. The adaptation probably took place due to the insufficient area of the original manor house, but with the owners' considerable income, the reason why they adapted the existing production building and did not erect a new palace as it used to be at the time is not certain.
