The rococo garden with the Parnassus mound

The rococo garden completes the baroque-rooted entre cour et jardin layout, "between courtyard and garden", founded in the 1770s by Kazimierz Raczyński.

The parterre is formed by thujas clipped into cones, framed by rows of lime trees that were originally shaped into balls. The whole composition is outlined by clipped hornbeam hedges. Inside them, level with the mound that closes the garden on the west, lie oval garden rooms enclosed by greenery.

The mound is called Parnassus. It once offered a view of the meadows along the Warta. Stone vases and rococo statues of mythological deities complete the composition. During the Second World War the Germans ploughed up the parterre of the rococo garden and damaged its sculptures. The garden has a complex spatial structure: besides the mound, it is formed by earth embankments, hedge-enclosed garden rooms and passages, and individual clipped plants. Beyond the garden begins the landscape park, which naturally links the residence with the Warta floodplain forests and the fields of the former estate.
