Lenno Palace Complex

The Lenno Palace Complex in Łupki, in the part of the village known as Wleński Gródek, was built in the 17th century on the site of a former bailey. The palace's former German name was Schloss Lehnhaus.

Construction and rebuilding

The palace was founded between 1653 and 1662 by Adam von Kaulhaus, a colonel in the service of the French king Louis XIII. The building is in the Baroque style. After the estate was purchased in 1730 by Count Jan Karol Grünfeld, the building was remodelled.

Interior and details

Inside, 17th-century frescoes and a stone staircase have survived. Above the entrance, in the tympanum, are the coats of arms of Jan von Grünfeld and his wife from the von Unruch family.

The whole complex

Besides the palace itself, the complex includes a park, a garden pavilion from the early 18th century and a dovecote from the late 18th century. The whole complex is listed on the heritage register under number 393/869/J, entered on 10 May 1985.
