Chomęciska Duże – Manor Estate Ensemble, School and Memorial Site

Chomęciska Duże has a preserved manor estate ensemble and a school building. The wooden manor steward’s house dates from the 19th or 20th century; the school was opened for use in 1925 and still stands today. A monument at the entrance to the village commemorates the Jews murdered during the Second World War. Road 3219 L and county road 3145L run through the village.

In the south of the Gmina Stary Zamość, the landscape around the villages of Chomęciska is flat and agricultural in character. This is a broader geographical scale than the individual historic sites in Chomęciska Duże: the landscape provides the municipal setting, while the manor estate ensemble, school and monument are specific points of reference in the village. You can therefore consider the rural surroundings and local history as different aspects of your travel planning.

The preserved ensemble includes the wooden manor steward’s house from the 19th or 20th century, groups of trees, rows of trees, and perimeter and access avenues. It therefore comprises more than just the individual building: the listed trees and avenues are also part of the ensemble. Anyone interested in historic manor houses can consider both the architecture of the house and these other features.

The school building, which still stands today, was built with municipal funds and opened for use in 1925. During the Second World War, the school was first occupied by Red Army troops and later by German soldiers. These two events help establish the chronology: 1925 marks the opening for use, while the occupations took place later during the war.

Another historical point of reference is the monument at the entrance to the village. It was erected to commemorate the Jews murdered during the Second World War. Its dedication stands apart from the school’s history and adds a distinct memorial site to the village.
