History
The park in Łuczanowice is an English-style manor park, entered in the register of historic monuments on 26 November 1980. It surrounds the Mycielski manor house, designed in 1902 by Tadeusz Stryjeński for Count Władysław Mycielski. Originally there were two ponds in the park, fed by the waters of the Łucjanówka stream. One was filled in, while the other survives and is an important wildlife habitat. Fragments of old woodland have also survived: small-leaved limes, oaks, pines and black locusts grow here, among others. The park has an outdoor gym and multi-purpose pitches.
