Manor Park

The manor park in Borucin was part of a manor-park complex. The manor house no longer exists; it was demolished after 1945. The park, which still exists today, was laid out in the late first half of the 19th century in the landscape-naturalistic style. The park covers an area of 3.70 ha, of which two ponds account for 0.40 ha. The park’s layout features: a courtyard in front of the former manor house’s façade, trees surrounding the manor, two oval ponds, and an orchard. On the northeast, north, and west sides, the park was bordered by rows of hornbeam and spruce trees. Walking paths connected the manor house to the park. The ponds in the park are located as follows: one larger pond on the western side of the grounds, and a second, smaller one on the border between the park and the orchard, near a moraine hill. The park’s tree stand is diverse in both species and age. Among others, you will find beech, linden, chestnut, and oak trees here. These constitute the oldest part of the park and are located around the former manor house. A younger tree stand dominates the western and southwestern parts of the park. Here you can find beech and spruce trees. The dominant shrubs include black elder, jasmine, blackberry, common hazel, common lilac, and goat willow. The park is bordered by a row of hornbeams on the west and a row of spruce trees on the north. The park is unfenced and open to the public. The walking paths are also clearly marked.
