What makes the palace park special?
The palace park in Żerniki Wrocławskie dates from the third quarter of the 19th century. Its classification as a naturalistic park gives the site a distinctive cultural and landscape history. Visitors interested in historic parkland during their stay will find a specific point of interest here.
What details does the church feature?
The Church of the Sacred Heart of Jesus (“Kościół Najświętszego Serca Pana Jezusa”) dates from the early 20th century and was built using half-timbered construction. It has a rectangular floor plan.
The artistic details also date from different periods. Above the entrance is a relief of the Good Shepherd from 1930. The church’s polychrome decoration was created by the Poznań painter Edmund Szyfter in the early 1960s. “Polychrome” refers to multicolored decoration. The relief and the painted decoration are therefore two distinct design features: the relief is above the entrance, while the decoration covers the interior. The church thus combines a description of its architecture with identifiable artistic works and their respective dates.
