The palace, which currently features a Baroque-Classical style, retains its main building with a centrally located entrance and a single wing. The structure has two stories and is topped with a ceramic gable roof. The pediment with its smooth portico, which looks particularly striking from the access road, catches the eye.
A ducal stronghold stood on the site of the present palace in the 12th century. In 1224, Princess Anastasia became its owner; she joined the Order of St. Norbert and bequeathed her estates to the order. Beginning around 1285, the stronghold’s structures were converted for use as a monastery. In the 16th century, following the secularization of the order, the estate was taken over by the Dukes of Pomerania. In 1560, the convent was rebuilt into a castle. In the 18th century, the Renaissance residence was rebuilt once again, this time in the Baroque-Classical style. In the 19th century, one of the last owners—Mayor Brummer—decided to demolish part of the palace due to a lack of funds for its upkeep, giving it its current form. Later, the property came under the administration of the Land Office and was used for offices and apartments. After World War I, the palace building housed a girls’ agricultural school. After 1945, the palace served various purposes. Since 1989, it has been the headquarters of the Trzebiatów Cultural Center.
