The manor houses
In addition to the palace and the outbuildings, the manor estate also included a cowshed, a stable, the so called “clock house” (an administrative building), a smithy, a granary, a brewery and a sawmill. The cowshed was built at the end of the 18th century and then remodelled in the late 19th century by Herman Czecz who used it for the breeding of top quality Polish red cattle.  Next to the cowshed stood the so-called clock house with a small clock tower. The clock struck full hours setting the rhythm of daily work on the farm. The building housed the apartment of the estate manager, as well as administrative offices, a laboratory used during the breeding of red cows, and a cellar for storing potatoes and mangold beets. The adjacent building housed a coach house and a smithy, and the last house in the row was a stable for farm horses. Other manor facilities included a granary which also doubled as a brewery with malt stores. When beer started to be transported to Kozy by train, the brewery was converted into a so-called smoking room for the production of ethanol. Towering over the brewery was a tall brick chimney.  Another building near the granary was a sawmill, where the Polish army stored artillery ammunition in 1939. Unable to transport it before the front arrived, the military decided to detonate it on site. The explosion, which took place at around 6.00 a.m. on 3 September 1939, caused considerable damage to the surrounding buildings.
