Palace

The first manor house on this site dates back to the 17th century. It was built by the von Ramel family. The appearance of the palace underwent a transformation during the time the von Podewils family resided here. They made changes to the building’s structure. Remnants of the former manor house are visible only in the perimeter walls of the northern section. Toward the end of the 19th century, the palace was expanded to the south by its next owner. Despite numerous alterations to the building’s structure, the manor has retained its 17th-century character.

The palace was built in the Baroque style. It is a two-story building with an irregular, two-bay interior layout. The façade has twelve axes, divided by pilasters, alternating between two and three axes. The pilasters rest on the lower and upper cornices. Above the windows is an interesting stucco decoration. Above the main entrance, located in the center of the building, there is an ornamental motif featuring conch and shell motifs. On both sides, garlands are visible, featuring pomegranates in the center and a cluster of leaves and flowers. The building is covered by a gable roof. None of the original interior furnishings have survived. Only a fragment of the staircase with 17th-century garland decoration remains.

After World War II, the palace underwent various changes in its history. It housed, among other things, the offices of the State Agricultural Farm, residential quarters, a cafeteria, and a preschool. Currently, the palace and its surrounding grounds remain in private hands. The owners take excellent care of the property. The building is not open to the public. The building’s facade is clearly visible from the entrance gate to the palace grounds or from the church grounds, which are adjacent to the palace.
