Description

Pałac Kornów w Pawłowicach (German: Schloss Pawelwitz) is a historic palace in the Pawłowice housing estate (Wrocław).

Originally a grange in Pawłowice belonging to the monastery of St Vincent in Wrocław, it was acquired in 1891 by Henryk Korn and transformed into a family seat. On the pediment of the palace the coats of arms of Heinrich von Korn and Helena née von Eichborn are preserved. Around the palace is a well-kept park with an area of 7.2 ha; in the park are a pond with an area of 0.4 ha, a small stone bridge vaulted with a basket arch, and a gloriette. At present the palace and park are the property of the Wrocław University of Environmental and Life Sciences, and it houses the Centre for Continuing Education, a conference centre, a hotel and a restaurant.
