Domaradzyn was a gentry village (owned by Walenty Bielicki), partially colonized by the Dutch settlers in 1792. In 1827, the village had 25 houses and 217 residents and in 1864 - 15 houses and 278 residents. The village was part of the Domaradza estate, which in the mid 1800s belonged to Henryk Bielicki.

Domaradzyn is a linear village located to the west of Głowno with homesteads situated mainly on the western side of the village road running longitudinally.

The elements of the Dutch landscape have survived; new buildings draw on traditional colonists' architecture (the residential and farming sections under a common roof). Numerous willows, poplars, and draining canals are detectable. The village road runs on a rise called trytwa. One example of traditional Olęder homestead and the colonists' cemetery have survived.

Object no. 15 is a masonry building erected in the 1930s and situated along an east-west line facing the village road with a gable. Residential and farming sections (cowshed) located under a common roof. I was built of stone and brick and was plastered on both sides. The building is covered with a double-pitched roof with cement tiles. The interior has a single-bay interior and a rebuilt fire system. The building is in a good condition. The homestead has a rectangular layout with the shorter side adjacent to the road. The homestead is surrounded by a metal fence.

The cemetery has a rectangular layout and is located on the western side of the road in the northern section of the village (before homestead no. 13 coming from the south). The cemetery is entirely overgrown with bushes and self-sown trees. No gravestones have survived.
