Palace in Mrozów

The Palace in Mrozów is a Gothic structure with an irregular quadrilateral footprint and a distinctive tower rising on its northern side with an octagonal upper level. The building combines residential and formal spaces, with facades showing evidence of renovations and additions from multiple periods.

The original defensive structure was built around the mid-16th century as a fortified manor house protecting its inhabitants. Over the following centuries it underwent multiple rebuilding campaigns, with the von Eichmann family directing significant renovations including Gothic Revival modifications before 1945.

The building displays layers of architectural choices in its walls and design, showing how successive owners changed it according to their preferences and time. A visitor walking around can see how these different periods were added one after another, creating a complex visual record.

The building is private property with no public access to the interior, but its exterior facades and surrounding grounds can be viewed from designated public areas. The best time to visit is during daylight hours when the architectural details on the walls are clearly visible.

Two stone griffins support a coat of arms cartouche positioned above the central balcony, displaying the skilled stonework typical of the period. These figures once served as symbols of power and status for the families who occupied the property.
