In the 1760s, Barbara Sanguszko (1718–1791), grants for long-term use the village and estate of Holodky to Ignatius Malchevsky, who was married to her sister Antonina, and was regent of the royal chancellery.

[1] At the start of the 19th century, the castle returned to the Sanguszko family, who further renovated the palace and turned into a splendid estate.

[4] Józef Potocki was one of the richest magnates in the Russian empire, a lover of nature and an avid hunter.

The French architect François Arveuf was involved between 1897 and 1903 adding a guest wing and redesigning the interior.

Also, the palace room housed a large art collection, consisting of paintings, porcelain (e.g. Sèvres, Saxon and Korets) and books.

[2] During the fire, employees and some residents of the estate moved part of the collections (artworks, furniture, library and archive) to nearby stables and campers.
