Park and Palace Complex

Nawrocko is a village with a linear street layout, dominated by a manor complex. The 18th-century palace served as the headquarters of the Hitler Youth from 1936 onward, and later as the headquarters of the SS. After World War II, it was used as a residence and a recreation hall. In the 1960s, the palace, which had fallen into disrepair, was demolished. A school was built in its place. To the east of the manor buildings lies an 18th-century landscape park. In the 19th century, the park was redesigned, resulting in the layout visible today. Currently, the park, which is rectangular in outline, covers an area of 4.5 hectares. It consists largely of a clearing where the palace once stood; a well can be seen next to an old linden tree. Deep within the park lies a neglected pond, next to which a distillery once stood. The park is home to 313 tree species, including: small-leaved linden, white chestnut, mountain elm, common hornbeam, European ash, broad-leaved linden, maple, red-leaved beech, common beech, two-necked hawthorn, ornamental apple, plum, walnut, Japanese larch, black pine, and Soulang’s magnolia.
