The ruin of a Borcke family palace from 1853 in Lesięcin, in a park of 5.5 ha with natural monuments.
The palace in Lesięcin is the ruin of a Borcke family residence from 1853, surrounded by an overgrown park. The building is listed in the heritage register.
From the 14th century until 1945 the village belonged to the Borcke family. The palace was built in 1853 by Peter Louis Ernst von Borcke, and in 1881 it was extended by Richard Ernest von Borcke. The two-storey building on a rectangular plan is covered by a mansard roof with dormers. The elevation is varied by two projections, and the front one is decorated with the Borcke coat of arms. On the gable wall a barely legible plaque about the building and rebuilding has survived.
The naturalistic park from the second half of the 19th century covers 5.5 ha. The natural monuments are a pedunculate oak, a small-leaved lime and a Douglas fir. In Kąkolewice, a little over 1 km away, stands St Joseph's Church.
