Rossocha is a village in Poland, currently in the Lodz Voivodship, in Rawa County (Powiat). From 1975-1998 it was part of the Skierniewice Voivodship.
Before World War II it was part of a szlachta (Polish nobility) estate, belonging to Jan Czarnowski. The Czarnkowski's family palace was built shortly after World War I by Juliusz Nagórski[1]; it was a small but luxurious holiday palace.
After the war part of the estate was turned into a biological and zoological research station.[2]
