The former manor farm includes a two-storey wooden granary with a mansard roof, dated to 1815, along with a smithy and stables. The surviving farm buildings also include a distillery, brewery and mill. A clock tower stands on Parkowa Street; its dial carries the phrases “ora et labora” and “Bete u. Arbeite.”
The park has mature trees, including a beech with a circumference of about 220 cm. It also has a red beech, a London plane and a 19th-century funerary chapel. A wayside chapel contains a sculpture of St John of Nepomuk dated 1736.
