Blumenrode Castle
Blumenrode Castle ( Polish Pałac w Kwietnie ) is a castle in Kwietno (German Blumenrode ) in the Powiat Średzki in the Lower Silesian Voivodeship in Poland .
history
Presumably there was a manor house in the village since the Middle Ages . The first recorded owners were from 1506 the Lords of Landskron, from 1650 Friedrich Günther von Wolzüge , court marshal of the last Piast Duke Georg Wilhelm . After that, the von Bibran, von Zedlitz , the Breslau patricians Rehdiger and the von Stechow owned.
Around 1890, Karl Scheibler, son of a textile dynasty from Łódź , acquired the manor house and built the present-day castle in the Dutch neo-Renaissance style in its place . The artificial ruin of a hunting lodge is located in the associated landscape park .
After the transition to Poland in 1945, the castle was nationalized and used as the administrative headquarters of a state- owned agricultural production cooperative. After the political changes of 1989, the plant was restored and the roof with Zwerchhäusern , dormers and jewelry chimneys restored.
