Description

Pałac Jedlinka is a historic palace in Jedlinka, a part of Jedlina-Zdrój in the Wałbrzych Mountains in Lower Silesia.

The first mentions of Jedlinka, then Tannhausen, date from the 13th century, when its owner was the Duke of Jawor and Świdnica, Bolko I the Strict. The last pre-war private owner of the palace was Gustaw Boehm.

The building was constructed at the beginning of the 17th century as a Baroque manor; its design is attributed to Carl Gotthard Langhans. It was rebuilt in the second half of the 19th century. In the years 1944–1945 it housed a design office of the German Nazi Organisation Todt. After the war it was handed over to a State Agricultural Farm (PGR); among other things, hay was stored in it. In 2004 it was bought, together with the grounds, by the company Felix Investments, belonging to the Led family. The palace and the adjoining buildings were restored. At present they house a museum, a hotel, a hostel and ballrooms. Since 2014 the Jedlinka Brewery, together with a restaurant hall, has operated in one of the buildings of the former palace and park complex.
