Palace in Paprotno

Paprotno Palace in Karnice municipality (Gryfice County) was built in 1871. The heritage register (number A-1621, entered in 2019) describes it as brick. It is a two-storey building with an area of 1,483 m2, which has lost its stylistic features through several rebuildings.

In the front part there are two projecting bays, and on the right a wing with a tower was added. The roof is hipped and flat. The historic interior fittings have not survived. Nearby stand farm buildings and a manor park.
