 During the time when Poland was partitioned, the building was called the "landratura", and the adjacent starost's villa was referred to as the landrat's villa, as at that time Września was part of the Kingdom of Prussia.Up to the 17th century, the land that now houses the office and adjacent villa was occupied by a cemetery belonging to the Church of the Holy Spirit.After the liquidation of the church, the plot remained neglected and unused for a long time.
