A Neoclassical palace of the Baildon family in Łubie near Tarnowskie Góry, from the 1860s, rebuilt in 1910-1911, surrounded by a landscape park wall with a chapel and a granary.
The palace in Łubie is the former family residence of the Baildons in the village of Łubie in Tarnowskie Góry County, entered in the heritage register. Today it houses a social care home, so the interiors are not open to visitors.
In the 1860s Artur Baildon built a Neoclassical palace in Łubie as a family seat. The family bore the name Baildon-Briestwell. In 1910-1911 the building was rebuilt to plans by Ernest von Haiger.
After the Second World War the estate was nationalised, and in the 1990s the palace was renovated. In 2001 descendants of the family visited it and brought old photographs.
The building stands on a rectangular plan, with a mansard roof with numerous dormers and a tower with a conical spire. The entrance is decorated with a portico with a cartouche bearing a coat of arms. The whole is surrounded by a walled landscape park with the chapel of St Mary Magdalene and a granary. A chestnut avenue leads to the palace, beginning at two stone pillars.
In the area are the palace in Kamieniec and the railway open-air museum in Pyskowice.
