It is the first building in the city constructed in the early Neo-Gothic style. Its architectural features are inspired by Venetian Gothic — graceful pointed windows, small towers, and decorative elements on the facade give it the appearance of a fairytale medieval estate.
The palace was built around 1840–1843 (according to other sources, even earlier — in the 1810s–1830s), presumably designed by Fryderyk Bauman for Count Henryk Seweryn Dzieduszycki. After his death, his widow Teodozja from the Mielżyński family lived there. In the second half of the 19th century, the palace was owned by Countess Felicja Komello, daughter of General Tadeusz Turkul. At that time, it resembled a countryside manor with a shingle roof, harmoniously integrated into the surrounding natural landscape.
In the 1920s–30s, the building belonged to the Batycki family, notably to Zofia Batycka — the first "Miss Polonia" (1930) and an actress in Polish cinema. Since 1937, the palace has been under the authority of the Stepan Gzhytskyi Lviv National University of Veterinary Medicine and Biotechnology, continuing to serve educational purposes to this day.
Today, the Turkuł-Komello Palace is not only a fine example of Lviv's noble architecture but also a significant cultural and historical site that preserves the aristocratic spirit of the city's past.
