What is part of the palace complex?
The palace complex in Grębów comprises a palace, an orangery, an enclosing wall with a gate, and a landscape park. The focus is therefore not solely on the palace: the orangery, gate, and park are also part of the described complex. The Gothic Revival styling applies to the palace and gate. Gothic Revival refers to the revival of Gothic design forms; in this complex, it is associated with specific structures rather than being applied indiscriminately to every element of the grounds.
There are ponds in the landscape park. Access is important when planning a visit: the park is accessible only with a permit, and the buildings are not accessible. If you are interested in the complex, you should take these two conditions into account separately rather than assuming unrestricted access to the entire site.
What cultural activities are available in Grębów?

The center’s ongoing work also includes preserving regional traditions and introducing young people to the values of earlier culture and folklore.
