Castle in Żagań, Baroque palace in Żagań, Poland.

The three-story palace features ornate facades with architectural details and is connected to the city by two brick bridges over a dry moat.

Albrecht von Wallenstein initiated the palace construction in 1630, with Italian architect Vincenzo Boccaccio designing the structure during the Thirty Years' War.

The palace houses the Cultural Center of Żagań and maintains regular exhibitions of regional art and historical artifacts in its grand halls.

Visitors can explore both the palace interior and the surrounding landscape park, which extends along the banks of the Bóbr River.

The palace combines French baroque architectural elements with Italian design principles, resulting in a distinct Central European aristocratic residence.
