The Benedictines left Sochaczew in the second half of the 13th century under a privilege granted by Bolesław, Duke of Mazovia, and a parish church dedicated to St. Lawrence, deacon and martyr, was erected in place of the Church of the Holy Trinity. The church was consecrated in 1257 by Andrzej Ciołek, Bishop of Płock. However, earlier, in 1244, Siemowit I, Duke of Mazovia, brought the Dominican Order to Sochaczew and founded a monastery and church dedicated to St. Nicholas, Bishop. This church was built on the banks of the Bzura River, which flows through the town. The wooden parish church stood on a slope until the 17th century. It was vaulted in front of the high altar, and the nave was covered with planks. Initially, it was roofed with tiles, and later with shingles. The Sochaczew rectory lacks a foundation erection, and episcopal visits attest to its loss in fires that ravaged the city and its churches. The parish church had St. Lawrence as its patron saint.

Founded in the mid-19th century, it is currently named after Ignacy Włodzimierz Garbolewski, the last owner of the estate. The park has an area of 3 ha, in the southern part there is a reservoir, and like the palace it is entered in the register of monuments (registration number: 324/62 of 1.02.1962 and 33 of 20.06.1981). In 2018, the park underwent a thorough revitalization. The historical course of the alleys and the circular, decorative flower bed were recreated. An outdoor stage was created, built on the site of the former manor outbuilding, and a music garden with an outdoor set of instruments. In the park, outdoor concerts are held regularly in the summer.
