Top 5 Castles around Dygowo

The palace in Lubiechów is an elegant neoclassical building from 1835, part of a former park and palace complex. It is distinguished by four corner towers and a central belvedere. Currently privately renovated, after years of neglect it is gradually regaining its former glory. It is surrounded by a historic park with interesting trees, although requiring renovation. The palace can be visited after obtaining the consent of the owners, and in the future it is planned to open a care and treatment facility here. It is worth including a visit and seeing the building at least from the outside during a bicycle trip around the region.

It was probably built in the initial period of the Duchy of Cieszyn, established in 1290, on the orders of its rulers. Its existence as a fortress is first confirmed in the feudal certificate of Duke Casimir I from 1327. At that time, it was probably a wooden structure surrounded by wooden and earthen ramparts and moats, designed to guard the nearby trade route from Cieszyn through a ford (later a bridge) on the Vistula River to Bielsko. The stronghold was probably expanded in the 14th or early 15th century. Starting from the 15th century, the Dukes of Cieszyn increasingly stayed there, often issuing important documents there, e.g. the so-called great privilege granted to the city of Bielsko by Bolko I in 1424. From 1431, the castle was one of the seats of Duchess Ofka, then it was the seat of Duke Przemko II. In the years 1573–1577, Skoczów, together with Strumień and the surrounding villages, was sold by Duke Wenceslas III Adam, creating the Skoczów-Strumień estate state. Its new owner, Gottard (Jerzy) from Łagów (von Logau) in Stara Wieś (Altendorf), began rebuilding the previously wooden and earthen castle into a brick one. Gottard died in 1589, but the reconstruction was continued. In the following years, the castle lost its defensive value, taking on a residential form. After the estate state returned to the Duchy of Cieszyn, around 1594, the castle became the seat of the burgrave and, from the beginning of the 17th century, of the hetman, managing the Skoczów-Strumień key of goods (the so-called state). Urbarium from 1621.

The manor house, or rather the palace in Lubiechów, was part of a park and palace complex. The complex was built in the 19th century at the request of the German burgher Rudolf Schröder. The palace itself dates back to 1835 and represents the neoclassical style. The palace was located between the park and the farmyard. The palace's volume is 5,600 m3, and the total usable area is 800 m2. The building was erected on a square plan. Each of the four corners is decorated with a three-story octagonal tower. The palace itself has two storeys, and is fully basemented. In the central part of the building, on the roof, there is a belvedere (in architecture - an additional floor or superstructure above the highest floor, used mainly in palaces). The palace's windows are rectangular, decorated with a cornice. Beautiful stairs lead to the palace. On the garden side of the elevation, there is a projection with an adjacent terrace, from which stairs once led to the park located behind the manor house. The largest room in the palace is the living room, the surface of which is increased by the projection. Currently, the palace is owned by private individuals, who are gradually renovating this beautiful building as they have the financial means. The condition they found when they took possession of the building was catastrophic. The palace had no roof, there were no stairs between the floors, the turrets were falling apart, the elevations were completely destroyed. A project was commissioned to renovate the palace, which resembles its former appearance in almost 90%. The progress of the works is already visible. The owner takes care of every detail of the new building. Even Gothic brick was brought in for the reconstruction. The intention of the owners is to create a care and treatment facility for the elderly in this place. The palace can be viewed with the owner's consent. The palace is accompanied by a historic park, with valuable trees, today quite destroyed, requiring renovation.

A well-preserved neo-Renaissance palace with forms representative of the 34 quarters of the 19th century, a richly shaped but harmonious body and moderate elevations, with preserved elements of the interior furnishings (stoves, fireplaces, stucco).

Palace in Nosowo (German name Nassow) The building from the second half of the 19th century in the Neo-Renaissance style, restored and modernized in 1979. The property is surrounded by a park with an area of sixteen hectares. Until 1945 the owners of Nosowo were the von Haydebreck and von Spranger families.

Access by bike is not the most pleasant to this place because the majority of the route is DW112, a very busy provincial road with Tirami. The palace, however, compensates for everything. The facade has been renovated and looks beautiful. It is the most beautiful palace in the vicinity of Koszalin. It is a pity that this property has no cafe whatsoever and is not accessible inside for visitors. Currently, there is a hotel there and various types of training and conferences are held.

The mansion can only be visited from the inside if you buy an apartment.
