The Chłapowski Manor in Rzeszów – a manor complex comprising a manor house, a park, a steward's house, a hunting lodge, stables, a cowshed, a granary and a gate, is located at Powstańców Śląskich Street in the eastern district of the city – Słocin. The estate belonged to the family of Dezydery Chłapowski. The main building is characterized by an irregular body of varying heights. The entrance part is a low, symmetrical block on a rectangular plan, built at the beginning of the 19th century. About 50 years later, a higher west wing was added. After the war, it housed an orphanage. Currently, the manor house is falling into disrepair. After the property was taken over by the magistrate, the councillors decided that at the end of May 2008 the manor house would be handed over to the Rzeszów curia as compensation. The park surrounding the manor, however, remained a publicly accessible urban garden.
