Pałac Warmątowice Sienkiewiczowskie is a Baroque palace in Warmątowice Sienkiewiczowskie surrounded by water and located south of Legnica in Lower Silesia. The main building displays typical Baroque architectural features with symmetrical design and characteristic decorative elements on its facades.
The palace was built starting in 1602 by Wenzeslaus von Zedlitz on the site of a medieval defensive manor, receiving Renaissance-style features. Later modifications transformed it into the Baroque structure that stands today.
