Kadyny Palace

Kadyny Palace is a 17th century residence built near the Vistula Lagoon with farm buildings, stables, and monastic structures forming one large complex. The main house connects with outbuildings that together created a complete working estate system.

The palace was founded in 1688 as a residence for the Schlieben family and later became a favored summer retreat for German Emperor Wilhelm II. The family shaped the property across generations as the center of their economic and social power in the region.

The palace served as the social and economic center of a large rural estate where nobility spent their summers and managed vast farmlands. Visitors can still sense how the residence and working buildings were connected as part of a single living and working world.

The property now operates as a hotel offering lodging and dining services set within the historic buildings. Visitors should know the grounds are quite expansive and walking through different sections requires time to explore fully.

The grounds house one of Europe's largest coach buildings that once sheltered the nobility's elaborate carriages. Rare Sikka deer still inhabit the property, originally introduced by the Japanese Emperor and thriving there to this day.
