Palace Park

The palace park in Bezrzecze was part of a complex that, in addition to the park, once included a group of farm buildings and a magnificent palace dating from the turn of the 18th and 19th centuries, of which virtually no trace remains today. The Neo-Gothic palace, built in the late 19th century, fell into disrepair after a fire in the mid-1940s. Today, only a few fragments of the structure remain visible, including the stairs and palace cellars, as well as the stone wall separating the park from the palace. The park in Bezrzecze is now privately owned, as clearly indicated by a sign reading “Private Property. No Trespassing.”  Currently, the area bears little resemblance to the former palace park; the once-landscaped park space with its tree-lined avenues is practically invisible today. There is practically no trace left of the ornamental shrubs and hedges. After 1945, the neglected park began to be overgrown with wild vegetation, and the pond located in this area became polluted. Recently, following maintenance work carried out in the park, its appearance has changed slightly. Walking down Parkowa Street toward the buildings during the winter, when the trees are bare, you can see these remnants in the distance. Among the mature trees growing in the park, the following species are worth mentioning: white and red horse chestnut, silver maple, small-leaved linden, broad-leaved linden, and silver linden, as well as European beech, European hornbeam, and European ash. Coniferous trees also grow here, including white pine, common yew, and blue spruce.
