Bożków castle in Lower Silesia

The Palace in Bożków – Formerly Schloss Eckersdorf 
 

The palace in Bożków, once known as Schloss Eckersdorf, was regarded as one of the most beautiful palace complexes in the former County of Glatz in Silesia. Originally built in the Renaissance style in the 16th century as the residence of the Counts of Magnis, it underwent numerous extensions and renovations over the centuries. The last major transformations in the 19th century shaped its current multifaceted architectural character. Despite varied uses after 1945, much of the original and valuable interior decoration has been remarkably preserved.
