Cieplice Palace
Local name: Pałac w Cieplicach
An impressive residence with an elongated 81-meter façade has been the branch of the Wrocław University of Technology since 1975. In the three-story palace, decorated stuccos, antique stoves, as well as some of the saved furniture have survived. The most interesting palace room is the magnificent, richly decorated ballroom with antique furnaces, crystal chandeliers and mirrors. In the vicinity of the palace there is a carefully maintained English park, and in its vicinity - a classical pavilion, the Empire Spa Theater and the classical building of the former Gallery.
This magnificent residence was built by the princely Schaffgotsch family. Until 1977, in the location of today's building, there was a guest house and a Renaissance manor house, which were destroyed in a fire. A few years later, using the remaining fragments of burned buildings, today's three-winged structure was created, arms turned towards the garden. The baroque palace with early Classicist forms fortunately survived the years of World War II. In the years 1949-1951 the building was completely refurbished and since then it has been the pride of the Cieplice-Zdrój district.
