    The large palace complex appears largely to be a work of historicism. The two-story long wing comprises 23 window axes. The old palace was extended, and an extension was added to the west, capped by narrow, crenellated corner turrets. On the street side, a projecting round tower with an onion dome separates the old and new buildings. On the old building, the coat of arms of the Stein von Altenstein marks the completion of construction in 1743. The west side is adorned with an ornate gable in Renaissance style and a stone balcony on massive consoles above the main portal. On the park side, a decorative gable and a sturdy tower with a hipped roof enliven the new building. A sober functional building was added to the east several decades ago.

    The interior has been largely altered by later changes of use. The approximately three-hectare park served primarily as a recreational area for the residents.
