Ziemiełowice Palace was created at the end of the 19th century on the initiative of Rudolph von Methner, holder of surrounding lands, forests, and a distillery. Neo-Renaissance and Baroque features prevail in the architecture of the two-story building, the whole was situated on a rectangular plan. A characteristic element of the palace is an octagonal tower with an onion helmet. The interiors are decorated with original furniture in the Neo-Baroque and Classicist style, as well as Art Nouveau stucco. After the end of the German occupation in 1945, the estate passed to the state treasury. The building housed a school, and in a later period a unit of the Voluntary Labor Corps. The palace is surrounded by a vast, eclectic park with the Church of St. Mary Magdalene, which was created on the site of a linden grove. Currently, the palace is private property and is sometimes made available, e.g., for photo sessions. Practical information: The palace is not open to visitors. Free admission to the park.
