Palace and park complex in Korfantów was established in the north-western part of the town at the beginning of the 17th century. The palace facilities are located on a small hill whose slope leads down gently to the west to the banks of the river ?cinawa Niemodli?ska. The park covering the area of 22 ha is naturalistic and landscape in its character. The park is not fenced and it is crossed by national roads to Niemodlin and Nysa. The owner of the park is the Tu?owice Forest District Office, the Korfantów Municipality leases the area of the park for indefinite time. A part of the park on the western bank of the river ?cinawa Niemodli?ska is located on the flat, boggy terrain. Originally it was a landscape park in the English style. It can be found in a compact, natural forest forest stand with lookout clearings and a wide east-west causeway. On the causeway there is a dirt road planted with lime trees and oaks forming a picturesque avenue. The age of these trees is estimated at over 200 years. On the forest clearing located to the north of the causeway a municipal stadium was built with a football pitch and the stands on the causeway slope. Next to the pitch a building with locker rooms, toilets and approx. 20 beds was constructed. Across the causeway there is a small cemetery with three graves, a place of burial of the last owners of the estate - von Pueckler-Burghauss family. Gravestones and crosses over them are in a good condition, inscriptions on them are still legible. A grave section was enclosed by a decorative metal fence. It is worth seeing two natural monuments – sessile oaks growing in the southern part of the park. One of them – bigger, growing on a small rise and enclosed by a wooden fence – is called by the local people "Bartek from Korfantów". Its age is estimated at about 400 years. In the park there are protected species of flora – flowering English ivy (Hedera helix) which creeps over the ground and climbs up the trees.
