Driving directions:

Driving down the road no 35 from Świdnica to Wrocław, after 9km you need to turn left in the place Marcinowice towards Klecin or Domanice. Driving ahead all the way long, in Domanice you approach the lake, before which there is a crossroads. The road leading to the right had much better surface in 2005, wheareas the road to the left is twice shorter. Regardless of which road you choose, you need to circle the whole lake since Borzygniew lies exactly on the other side. In Borzygniew, constantly following the road situated the closest to lake you will reach the mine, by which the church stands. Beyond the church the ruins of the palace are located.




Historical outline:

The palace in Borzygniew (or acc. to some sources the castle) was raised probably in 1613, which suggests an inscription on its portal. The building was then reconstructed in the XVIIIth and XIXth cent. The palace destroyed during the World War II is falling into larger and larger ruin.
