History
[edit]In 1697, there was a masonry building, owned by merchant Kristapas Staškevičius. After conflagration in 1748, the house was rebuilt by Castellan of Brest Litovsk Andrzej Abramowicz.[1]
Essential reconstruction was made in 1780s with Augustyn Kossakowski project.[1] Construction of the palace was started by the widow of Jerzy Abramowicz, Andrzej's brother, Marcjanna (née Dernalowicz).[2] In 1844 the palace became the property of the Orthodox consistory clergy. In 1853-1860 it was rebuilt under the direction of Tomasz Tyszecki and connected with St. Casimir's Church, then an Orthodox church.[2] In the interwar period, the building belonged to the Jesuit Order.[2] After World War II it was Juozas Tallat-Kelpša High School of Music, which later was transformed into conservatory.
