A classicist palace built in the years 1791–1794 according to the design of Christian Peter Aigner for the daughter of the duchy, Maria Czartoryska von Württemberg. A characteristic feature of the building is the Corinthian recessed portico. On its frieze, a quote from Horace was placed: Iste terrarum mihi praeter omnes angulus ridet (This corner of the earth smiles at me more than any other).
This building is an example of the rectangular palace type with a rotunda hall, characteristic of the architecture of the turn of the 18th and 19th centuries. The round salon is covered by a dome within the roof decorated with square coffered panels. The original elements of the interior decoration of the palace have not survived, but memoirs indicate the salon was en stuc blanc with a marble fireplace in the window. In the middle window, the preserved fireplace decorated with plant motifs was placed.
Maria von Württemberg was supposed to live in the palace, but it was usually used to accommodate guests of the Puławy court. Occasionally, the other daughter of the duchy, Zofia Czartoryska Zamoyska, also stayed here, coming to Puławy with her family. Around Marynek, a kitchen and a greenhouse were also built (the structures have not survived to the present day). Over the years, the palace underwent changes and renovations, losing its former interior layout. The coffered dome was eliminated, and the parapets on the side elevations of the palace were removed. For many years, it housed the Beekeeping Department of the Institute of Horticulture and Floriculture from Skierniewice. Currently, the property belongs to the City of Puławy.
