Siebenhufen Castle ( Polish Dwór w Siemisławicach ) is a mansion in Siemisławice (German Siebenhufen ) in the rural community Przeworno ( Prieborn ) in the Powiat Strzeliński ( Strehlen district ) in the Lower Silesian Voivodeship in Poland .

According to tradition, Hans von Czrinaw, son of Frederick I of Liegnitz, lived in Siebenhufen Castle in 1445. Today's palace in the style of the Renaissance emerged in 1609 and was restored in the late 19th century.

The manor house was converted into a Renaissance manor house by Georg von Czorn around 1609. The next reconstruction took place after 1653 and then in the second half of the 19th century and at the beginning of the 20th century. After 1945 the property was nationalized and offices and apartments were set up. The manor house was renovated in 1972–1974. The manor house has not been used since 2011.

The building is made of stone and brick , on a rectangular floor plan, partly with a basement, two floors, with a usable attic, covered with a gable roof . A one-story outbuilding to the east. Nine-axis facade with a central rectangular tower. The tower with a sundial between the third and fourth floors dominates the main entrance of the building, which is adorned with a two-axis mannerist portal with the coats of arms of the von Czirn and von Zedlitz families.

The remains of a destroyed park and the buildings of the former estate border the manor house: an outbuilding, a barn, a stable, a barn and a granary. The building was entered in the monument register on April 12, 1966 under the number 277/1635.
