Palace in Leśno Górne

The palace in Leśno Górne is a neo-Gothic palace with elements of eclecticism, located in Police municipality. It was built by Hermann Schoeffler.

The building

The palace was built of plastered red brick. It has three storeys, symmetrically placed window openings, a hipped roof and a corner tower on an octagonal plan by the façade. Successive owners from the Brussow family brought electricity, water and sewerage to it, laid oak parquet floors and installed central heating.

The park and its history after the war

In the park by the palace a boulder in memory of the poet Hermann Löns was set up in 1934. After the Second World War the site came under Polish jurisdiction, and from the 1960s it fell into ruin. In 2000 reconstruction of the palace and its surroundings was undertaken. The palace, together with the park from the mid-19th century, is entered in the heritage register (A-866 of 18 May 1990).
