To the Manor Born

Manor houses were where the Polish elite once lived. You can still find them dotted around the Polish landscape in various degrees of state. Either they have been converted into offices or bought by foreigners (usually by the property-ladder hungry Brits!).

This one is situated 9km north of Toruń and is set in a landscaped park (open to the public). It was built in 1848 and restored in 1971. During WWII the owner (along with most of Toruń's educated elite) was executed by the Nazis. The palace is now the HQ of the Agricultural Property Agency.
