5. Dining room

Walls of the dining room are covered with oak wood panelling. In line with the room´s function, the main and the most important piece of furniture here is a table (2nd half of the 19th century) set for dinner. Besides, there are: a cupboard on the right and a display cabinet (early 19th century) on the left, both used to store the tableware. At the door there is a side table used to put spices or serving dishes brought from the kitchen. A porcelain dinner-set on the table is Flora Danica (Denmark, 1st half of the 20th century) decorated with plant motifs from a herbarium. On the fireplace we can find a Secessionist-style jardinière from Warsaw metal workshop of Roman Plewkiewicz. On the walls we can admire still life paintings with the artwork of Johan Georg de Hamilton (1672–1737) entitled Pheasants (right from the entrance).
