The Palace in Sowczyce is a former hunting manor, rebuilt into a magnificent residence in the second half of the 18th century on the order of the von Gessler family. It owes its current Neo-Gothic appearance to changes in the architecture of the body from the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. The palace is a two-story building, erected on an L-shaped plan. The architectural element distinguishing the edifice is a square tower towering over the side elevation. A large landscape park has been preserved around the object to this day, in which there is a monument with the grave of the favorite horse of one of the former owners of the palace. Practical information: The facility is not open to visitors. Free parking below the facility.
