During the period of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth (1569–1795) the estate was the property of the szlachta family Wielądek, Nałęcz coat of arms. Coat of arms 

The Wielondek family's coat of arms is Nałęcz, quoted by Jan Długosz as one of the oldest Polish coats of arms "Arma baronum Regni Poloniae”. with the earliest preserved seal dating back to 1293. It is traditionally described as a silver shawl tied on a red background, symbolising unity and harmony. From the 17th century the crest features a young lady in a red dress standing on a jewel-encrusted crown and holding stag’s antlers. Some heraldic sources describe the dress as azure blue
