    The palace in Brzeziny was built in the second half of the 19th century. 18th century von Natzmer family. Other sources say that the construction of the palace should be associated with the von Wedel family, who in 1765 were supposed to grant the property a residential status by building the palace. Presumably, the estate with the palace was the dowry of Luise Wilhelmina von Wedel and at the end of the 18th century, as a result of family affinities, it was taken over by the von Brandt family. The new owners established a landscape park next to the palace.
    In 1896, the palace was purchased by state councilor Maximilian von Voß (Woss) from Heinrich Fritz. After 20 years, it was sold to the von Cramm family by the widow Klara von Voß née Röchling. The following families are mentioned as owners of the estate from the beginning of the 19th century to the 1930s: von Brandt, von Bonin, Bethe, von Ratzner, von Marwitz, Solociński, Ackermann, Rau, Sponholz, Sieghein, Damcke)
    Before 1939 and during the war, the palace was the seat of the RAD-Lager, i.e. Reichsarbeitsdienstlager - Reich Labor Service. The von Voß family left an image of the family coat of arms on the palace, a flag on the tower and a small cemetery.


    It is a baroque building, partly transformed, made of brick, founded on an elongated rectangular plan, with a projection from the north and a glazed veranda from the east, two-storey with a usable attic in a gable, broken roof with dormers. The main entrance is accentuated by a four-storey front tower with a spherical cupola, shifted from the axis to the left, while the right part of the façade is divided by two pseudo avant-corps with volute extensions topped with triangular gables, limited by corner pilasters, similarly to the corners of the tower. The interior has a two-bay layout, with a central communication corridor and a spacious hall with a two-flight staircase on the axis of the tower. The rooms, with secondary partition walls, are covered with flat ceilings. Fragments of the landscape park have been preserved in the vicinity of the palace.

      The palace is fenced and closed. There is a Social Welfare Home there. You can only see it from behind the fence, from a distance.
